[Verse 1]
I've been so many miles
I've done forgot how long I've been gone
I've worn a hole right through my soul
And both these shoes I've got on
I've ran the streets
I've shot the breeze
I've seen the world but found out
My ragged heart's still on a string that's tied to you

[Pre-Chorus 1]
And, I'm on my way (Hey)
I'm almost there
I look like hell, baby, but I don't care
Pick out your best dress, leave it on the floor
I'm coming in hot, baby, can't wait no more, yeah

[Chorus]
So baby, leave the light on
And let your hair down
I'm your midnight rider
It won't be long now
Been driving all night
So Katy bar the door
Gonna hold you tight, so hold thе phone
Gonna kiss you like I'm coming home from war
[Verse 2]
You kеpt a candle in the window
Waiting, burning for me
I'm turning home
I'll turn you on as soon as I turn the key
Your gravity is pulling me, you're all I need

[Pre-Chorus 2]
I'm on my way (Hey)
I'm almost there
I look like hell, baby, but I don't care
Yeah, this old highway is through with me
Yeah, there's a million winding roads
But, just one place I want to be

[Chorus]
So baby, leave the light on
And let your hair down
I'm your midnight rider
It won't be long now
Been driving all night
So Katy bar the door
Gonna hold you tight, so hold the phone
Gonna kiss you like I'm coming home from war

[Bridge]
I'm on my way
Hey, hey
I'm on my way
[Chorus]
So baby, leave the light on
And let your hair down
I'm your midnight rider
It won't be long now
Been driving all night
So Katy bar the door
Gonna hold you tight, so hold the phone
Gonna kiss you like I'm coming home from war

[Outro]
Just like I'm coming home from war
I'm on my way
I'm on my way
