Craig Marker - September Nights Lyrics

September nights, I feel the ward wind on my face
As I drive down a deserted highway five
In my mind, I see a candle burning bright
The only thing that keeps these worn-down wheels spinning right

Oh, stereo on, this Tunnel of Love
Singin' loud like these words are a window to my soul
Highway signs, pass me by, so I know
Just a few hundred more miles 'til I stand at your front door

There's something in the air that keeps me blowing to the north
Like a compass beating red inside my chest
I'll always hear the call that draws me to a love so sure
Like a blind man wandering aimlessly into the dark

I see the trees, swaying softly in the breeze
In the shade an empty seat brings me gently to my knees
I feel the chill of her sweet breath on my neck
Slowly drawing me deeper into her unrelenting web

Some say no, as they watch me lose control
You can warn a man so long, but in the end he still will go

There's something in the air that keeps me blowing to the north
Like a compass beating red inside my chest
I'll always hear the call that draws me to a love so sure
Like a blind man wandering aimlessly into the dark

Her voice filled with empty whispers
I'm a moth chasing after her light
But when belief comes from listenin'
What happens when the light dies out?

There's something in the air that keeps me blowing to the north
Like a compass beating red inside my chest
I'll always hear the call that draws me to a love so sure
Like a blind man wandering aimlessly into the dark
