One Mile Closer
Music bleeding from a lashing guitar
The 'Mats are pushing me left of the dial
One mile closer to my baby so soon
My light from heaven exploding above
My white lace lovely come dance in the light
Sweet conversation won't cut it tonight
Wrestle confusion make passion our slave
Love's addiction the vice that I crave
Your devil smile rehearsing your dreams
Slip back too easy too often it seems **
Barroom glances my sin I confess
But Saturday bleeds into Sunday at best
Red, white, and blue regalia today
I'm trying to drink all your smiles away
Too deep within me the cut of your love
Too sad to call upon the Lord up above
Gotta think we're gonna make it
Make it through another night like this
Gotta think we're gonna make it
Close your eyes and give me one sweet kiss
I lost your friendship, your trusting in me
Man never thinks of the god he can be
Just golden handcuffs to lead us along
I want to fall inside a Ray Davies song
Come some conclusion whatever we fake
Hard lessons learned from our quiet mistakes
I love you baby forever you know
Your sweetness follows me wherever I go
Music lifting from a Spanish guitar
The distance travelled is never too far
One mile closer to touch you again
My light from heaven exploding within
