I find the map and draw a straight line Over rivers, farms, and state lines The distance from 'A' to where be It's only finger-lengths Jobby that I see I touch the place I'd find your face My finger in creases of distant dark places
I my coat up in the first bar There is no peace that I've found so far The laughter penetrates my silence As drunken men find flaws in science
words mostly noises Ghosts with just voices Your words in my memory Are like music to me
I'm miles from where you are, lay down on the cold ground I, I pray that something picks me up And sets me down in your warm arms
After I have travelled so far We'd set fire to the third bar We'd share each other like an island Until exhausted, close our eyelids And dreaming, pick up from last place we left off Your skin is weeping A joy you can't keep in
I'm miles from where you are, I lay down on the cold ground And I, I pray that something picks me up and sets me down in your warm arms
I'm miles where you are, I lay down on the cold ground and I, I pray that something picks me up and sets down in your warm arms
