Too Far Away

In the heat of the night there's a neon light Where a cup of black coffee kills the appetite Traveling man closes dusty eyes Resting down by the riverside Sudden spark of a cigarette It takes his coast as a long way yet One thousand miles too far away Crazy girl standing by the road She don't even know where she's going One of the unforgiven Making up an angel face in the mirror Cold cups of coffee by the unmade bed The scent of her cheap perfume tells a story How she ran away from home Became a freeway child Following her lonely star One thousand miles too far away Whiskey man got old eyes And stories full of lies But good to pass away the time As the sun comes up and the blinds go down Living in this small town Where the waitress smile She never seen the sea Or smell that special air Well maybe she'll, maybe she'll get there One fine day But it's one thousand miles too far away One thousand miles too far away
