Somewhere After Midnight Lyrics

Somewhere after midnight Somewhere before noon I looked out on the horizon and I saw the risin' moon I heard a train whistle blowin' In the back of my brain Said they thought the clouds were coverin', and they expected rain It's been a long time comin' It's been a long time carrying on If we don/t get ourselves together We're gonna be a long time gone I am not a warrior, I am not a pacifist I'm firmly planted in middle America, just trying to do my best But when an international storm, Threatens my home or family There's nothin' in this life that will stop me, from defending my liberty It's been a long time comin' It's been a long time carrying on If we don't get ourselves together We're gonna be a long time gone You know it's been a long time comin' It's been a long time carrying on If we don't get ourselves together We're gonna be a long time gone
