Text: Willie Nelson. Each Night At Nine.
A thousand miles dear, a thousand more
Across the water, across the shore
I'll say a prayer, dear for yours and mine
Please think of me, dear each night at nine
I hold your picture close to my heart
It takes your place, dear while we're apart
Helps remind me that you're still mine
To feel your nearness night at nine
The bugle's playing out go the lights
Even it's lonely, these army nights
Go tell kids I'm doing fine
Give them my love, dear each night at nine
A thousand miles dear
I'll say a prayer dear for yours and mine
Please think of me dear each night at nine
Across the water, across the shore
I'll say a prayer, dear for yours and mine
Please think of me, dear each night at nine
I hold your picture close to my heart
It takes your place, dear while we're apart
Helps remind me that you're still mine
To feel your nearness night at nine
The bugle's playing out go the lights
Even it's lonely, these army nights
Go tell kids I'm doing fine
Give them my love, dear each night at nine
A thousand miles dear
I'll say a prayer dear for yours and mine
Please think of me dear each night at nine
Nelson, Willie
Nelson, Willie
