Far Away
Quarters piled high upon the table
He orders Wild Turkey and with a quick wit and a smile
He says, my darlin' you're the one I'll drape in sable
But his baseball cap and his barroom rap tell me a different story
That this is not my prince to grant all my wishes
Just another lonely country boy grown weary of the night
Just another boy with a sinkful of dirty dishes
And where are you tonight
When I left you in my dreams last night
You promised me that we would be breaking free
Where are you to
Fields of My Love
This is a dangerous tale
Of oxygen and flame
Tale of running away
Nowhere to run
All I can see is you
Visions of water in the desert sun
Stay...
CHORUS
Things gonna get real slow today
Things gonna get real slow today
Takes one prisoner
Takes one to show him the way
Then comes this lesson in natural history
And these ladies are laughing at me
Can I join the fun?
I know I'm haunted, keeps the flame bright
I guess I can say I'm alright
Just a burning arrow stuck in my heart
Well, anyway...
CHORUS
And some people say that
We shouldn't cross this line
But there is no line
Only the sky
I want to see you smile
Want to feel us get up and fly
Shouldn't we?
CHORUS
