lyrics

40 Miles

Travelin’ the country
All the state lines I cross
And all the time I feel so lost
Makin’ the days seem long
But it’s 40 more miles to my love
40 more miles to my love
Still workin’ my way
All the strangers I see
But the one he waits for me

More confused than I was before
Will never quite erase the picture of that door
As it closed
Slammed upon my smile
Now it’s 40 more miles and I’ll be home
40 more miles and I’ll be home
Never felt this far before
Let me find some comfort there


One year later and I’m movin’ again
40 more miles to the site of my grave
Well the whiskey, didn’t keep me warm at night
And the one timers left me wanting
Oh, the death of our love
Something I could not survive

40 more miles and I’ll be gone
40 more miles and I’ll be gone
40 more miles and I’ll truly be home
Oh, truly be home
