11 Time Zones

I’m just a country kid living in the big town,

Caught up by the lights, swept away by the big sound,

And all the pretty girls, the pretty girls,

The pretty girls in high heels.

I’m just a country girl. Don’t like the big town.

X-es on the calendar mark my countdown

Till that man of mine, that man of mine,

Till that man of mine comes home.

I’m a half a world away from everyone I once held

Dear, oh deary me, it’s been eleven months since

I left my pretty wife, my pretty wife,

My pretty wife back in Jacksonville.

Well, when he comes home, will things be the same?

What if when he comes home, he can’t see that I’ve changed?

Oh, when he comes home, what if he drives me insane?

When he comes home, will it be the same?

Eleven Time Zones won’t break us.

Eleven Time Zones can’t break our will.

Eleven Time Zones won’t break us

But he's never felt so far from Jacksonville.

I’m just a country girl. Don’t like the big town.

X-es on the calendar mark my countdown,

Till that man of mine, that man of mine,

Till that man of mine comes home.

I’m just a country kid living in the big town,

Caught up by the lights, swept away by the big sound,

And all the pretty girls, the pretty girls

The pretty girls in high heels.

Now, what I’m ‘bout to say, can’t myself believe,

If he didn’t come back I might feel relieved.

I love that man of mine, that man of mine.

But am I ready for that man of mine to come home?

Oh, when I come home, will things be the same?

What if when I come home, she can’t see that I’ve changed?

Oh, when I come home, what if it's all just mundane?

When I come home, will it be the same?

Eleven Time Zones won’t break us

Eleven Time Zones can’t break our will.

Eleven Time Zones won’t break us

But I've never felt so far away…

Eleven Time Zones won’t break us

But maybe livin’ in the same one will.

Eleven Time Zones won’t break us

But I’ve never felt so far away from you

Honey, when you comin’ back to Jacksonville?
