Lyrics

A Thousand Miles Closer

My daddy always told me
When you love someone
You got to give them what they want
Even if its their freedom
This thing that you wished for
Is really killing me
I hope it makes you happy
I hope it sets you free
(chorus)
Now I'm rolling into Tuscon
Been driving all night long
The farther these wheels take me
The more things feel so wrong
Still I know I'm doing right
The best thing that I could
I'm a thousand miles closer
To starting to feel good
You didn't know I heard you
Saying how I cramp your style
Complaining to your momma
And crying all the while
First I said to myself
Was that you talking or the booze?
Until I finally realized
It sounded like the truth
(repeat chorus)
(bridge)
I'm not sure if leavin's right
But I'm so far past "let's see"
When dawn shines thru my windshield
I don't know where I'll be
(repeat chorus)
