How Many Miles (Until I Forget About You)
Lost love on the highway.....................
Music and lyrics by Jason Bennett
guitars, banjo and backing vocals by Brian Irwin.
I-25, Walsenburg line
I left you the flowers, but I took the wine
Sundown is hanging by a thread
I still can’t believe all those things that you said
And it’s all that I can do
To keep my hands at ten and two
Honey how many miles
‘til I forget about you?
How many miles
‘til I forget about you?
Got the pedal to the floor
Hear the hummin’ of the wheels
I ain’t got the time
To make any deals
The highway signs
Are all pointing west
And the Arizona line
Is a day away at best
And it’s all that I can do
To keep my hands at ten and two
Honey how many miles
‘til I forget about you?
So take away your Shakespeare
Take away Rimbaud
Those sugarcoated lines
Don’t cut it anymore
The Western skyline
Is a comin- on strong
One more tank of gas
And I’ll be long gone
And it’s all that I can do
To keep my hands at ten and two
Honey how many miles
‘til I forget about you?
