200 More Miles lyrics

PLAY COWBOY JUNKIES 200 More Miles video Atlanta`s a distant memory
Montgomery a recent birth
And Tulsa burns on the desert floor
Like a signal fire
And I got Willy on the radio
A dozen things on my mind
And number one is fleshing out
These dreams of mine

I`ve got 200 more miles of rain asphalt in line
Before I sleep
But there`ll be no warm sheets or welcoming arms
To fall into tonight

In Nashville there`s a lighter
In a case for all to see
It speaks of dreams and heartaches
Left unsung
And in the corner stands a guitar and
Lonesome words scrawled in a drunken hand
I don`t travel past, travel hard before
And I`m beginning to understand

I`ve got 200 more miles of rain asphalt in line
Before I sleep
But there`ll be no warm sheets or welcoming arms
To fall into tonight

They say that I am crazy
My life wasting on this road
That time will find my dreams
Scared or dead and cold
But I heard there is a light
Drawing me to reach an end
And when I reach there, I`ll turn back
And you and I can begin again

I`ve got 200 more miles of rain asphalt in line
Before I sleep
But there`ll be no warm sheets or welcoming arms
To fall into tonight
I`ve got 200 more miles of rain asphalt in line
Before I sleep
But I wouldn`t trade all your golden tomorrows
For one hour of this night

Atlanta`s a distant memory
Montgomery a recent birth
And Tulsa burns on the desert floor
Like a signal fire
