When we left that late November day, it was colder than I had remembered
Driving in an old Dodge Aries, we were trying to make our way down those snowy roads that storm delivered
we’re a hundred miles to Charleston
There’s still several more to go
The night is almost gone
there’s a lot of road behind me and the sky is black and cold
And I can’t wait to see the sun again
If there’s no relief in sight, we’re heading home
These plans we made will be long forgotten
How I’d love to make that drive down Summerville Road
And see your smiling face as we sit around the table
we’re a hundred miles to Charleston
There’s still several more to go
The night is almost gone
there’s a lot of road behind me and the sky is black and cold
And I can’t wait to see the sun again
I need something to help me stay awake
My eyes, they seem a little strained
So lead me on star and help me make it through the night
We’ve got to get to where we’re going
we’re a hundred miles to Charleston
There’s still several more to go
The night is almost gone
there’s a lot of road behind me and the sky is black and cold
And I can’t wait to see the sun again
