[Verse 1]
Well I headed East, heard there was money out there
And I was so tired of just gettin' by
You said baby don't leave, oh this just ain't fair
We both cried as we kissed goodbye

[Chorus}
But these Daytona nights, they don't shine as bright as Dallas
I'm lyin' in this bed just missin' you
But it'll be alright, honey I will be home soon
And you can see me again by the November moon
I'm runnin' home to you

[Verse 2]
The weather on the coast, I guess it's nice
But I'd trade the shore just to see your smile
I hope you know that I'm doing this for you
Being away oh it breaks my heart in two

[Chorus}
But these Daytona nights, they don't shine as bright as Dallas
I'm lyin' in this bed just missin' you
But it'll be alright, honey I will be home soon
And you can see me again by the November moon
I'm runnin' home to you
[Bridge]
Well I guess sometimes life don't work out just like we plan
Time for me to step up and be a man

[Chorus}
But these Daytona nights, they don't shine as bright as Dallas
I'm lyin' in this bed still missin' you
And it'll be alright, honey I will be home soon
And you can see me again by the November moon
I'm runnin' home to you

[Outro]
Oh babe I'm runnin' home to you
Oh babe I'm runnin' home to you
Oh babe I'm runnin' home
