1800 Miles

eighteen hundred miles from your heart

the trees are down and all the roads are blocked

there's a headwind pushing and the lights are out

i'm all alone there is no doubt

eighteen hundred miles from your heart

and i can't tell the daylight from the dark

i tried talking about yesterday

then my head started spinning

there were snakes and sharks

in the waters we were swimming

but that's all behind us now

and all we have are each other

i wanna know what it's like again to be lovers

eighteen hundred miles from your heart

the trees are down and all the roads are blocked

there's a headwind pushing and the lights are out

i'm all alone there is no doubt

eighteen hundred miles from your heart

i can't tell the daylight from the dark

let everybody say what they will

you said that one

with a sparkle in your eye

you rolled off your tongue

i never was big enough to stand down for you

no words at all who ever knew

no words at all were cut right through

eighteen hundred miles from your heart

the trees are down and all the roads are blocked

there's a headwind pushing and the lights are out

i'm all alone there is no doubt

eighteen hundred miles from your heart

and i can't tell the daylight from the dark

eighteen hundred miles

god i miss your smile

eighteen hundred miles from your heart

this is robert old

keen and like hag song says

and kicking out the footlights

after twenty years of picking i'm still
