Twenty Four Hours From Tulsa

Текст песни Jay & The Americans - Twenty Four Hours From Tulsa

Dearest darlin', I had to write to say that I won't be home anymore
'Cause somethin' happened to me while I was drivin' home
And I'm not the same anymore
Oh, I was only twenty four hours from Tulsa
Only one day away from your arms
I saw a welcoming light and stopped to rest for the night

And that is when I saw her as I pulled in outside of the small motel she was there
And so I walked up to her, asked where I could get something to eat
And she showed me where
Oh, I was only twenty four hours from Tulsa
Only one day away from your arms
She took me to the café, I asked her if she would stay, she said "OK"

Oh, I was only twenty four hours from Tulsa
Only one day away from your arms
Jukebox started to play and nighttime turned into day as we were dancin'
Closely, all of a sudden I lost control and fell for her charms
And so I kissed her, caressed her, told her I'd die
Before I would let her out of my arms

Oh, I was only twenty four hours from Tulsa
Only one day away from your arms
I hate to do this to you but I love somebody new, what can I do?
And I could never, never, ever go home again
