Thousand Miles Away - Smoky Mountains Sessions Lyrics

"Good night, darling,"
Coming through a phone call
Laying in a bed I sleep alone
Been four days now
Since we've talked about
Anything but how your day was going

Most our fights are just because I miss you
I'm thinking about how much I wanna be with you

Well, girl, can you imagine
The life we'll have when
You're just a girl down the road
And I'll bring you flowers
To your front porch after
Work on my way home?
And I won't have to spend most my days
Feeling like my heart's a thousand miles away

Well, I could swim across that 'sippi river
Hitchhike from here to Denver
And I'd still be ten hours from your door
I hate how I fall asleep
When you still got sunlight to see
But I guess that's the price I pay for

Loving a girl across the zones of time
Loving you is worth it and I ain't changing my mind

Girl, can you imagine
The life we'll have when
You're just a girl down the road
And I'll bring you flowers
To your front porch after
Work on my way home?
And I won't have to spend most my days
Feeling like my heart's a thousand miles away

A thousand miles away

Well, girl, can you imagine
The life we'll have when
You're just a girl down the road
And I'll bring you flowers
To your front porch after
Work on my way home?
And, darling, we can dance every time it rains
And I won't have to spend most my days
Feeling like my heart's a thousand miles away

A thousand miles away
