Well, Im runnin down this mountain pass at midnight;
Those truckers, they all flash their lights at me.
This highway aint the very best companion,
cause I know theres somewhere else Id rather be.

The moonlight on the snow just sets me thinking
bout the way your smile shines upon your face.
And I know this aint the last beer Ill be drinking
Before I reach my final resting place
Oh, i...

(chorus)

...wish that I was in your arms a sleeping,
Dreaming of the sweet love we just made,
But Im runnin down this mountain pass at midnight,
Wishin I was in your arms again.

Oh my wheels are running hard against this mountain,
I finally crossed the archuleta line.
Another hour and Ill be with my darlin
To dry those lonesome tears that shes been cryin
But i...

(chorus)

Im runnin down this mountain pass at midnight;
Those truckers, they all flash their lights at me.
This highway aint the very best companion,
cause I know theres somewhere else Id rather be.
Oh, i...

(chorus)

I am runnin down this mountain pass at midnight,
Wishin I was in your arms again.
