[Chorus]
Well, I'm runnin' down this mountain pass at midnight;
Those truckers, they all flash their lights at me
This highway ain't the very best companion
'Cause I know there's somewhere else I'd rather be

[Verse 1]
Well, the moonlight on the snow just sets me thinking
'Bout the way your smile shines upon your face
And I know this ain't the last beer I'll be drinking
Before I reach my final resting place

[Chorus]
Oh, I wish that I was in your arms a sleepin'
Dreaming of the sweet love we just made
But I'm runnin' down this mountain pass at midnight
Wishin' I was in your arms again

[Verse 2]
Oh my wheels are running hard against this mountain
I finally crossed the Archuleta line
Another hour and I'll be with my darlin'
To dry those lonesome tears that she's been cryin'

[Chorus]
But I wish that I was in your arms a' sleeping
Dreaming of the sweet love we just made
But I'm runnin' down this mountain pass at midnight
Wishin' I was in your arms again
[Chorus]
I'm runnin' down this mountain pass at midnight;
Those truckers, they all flash their lights at me
This highway ain't the very best companion
'Cause I know there's somewhere else I'd rather be

[Chorus]
Oh, I wish that I was in your arms a' sleeping
Dreaming of the sweet love we just made
But I'm runnin' down this mountain pass at midnight
Wishin' I was in your arms again

[Outro]
I am runnin' down this mountain pass at midnight
Wishin' I was in your arms again
