1800 miles from your heart The trees are down and all the roads are blocked There's a headwind pushing and the lights are out I'm all alone, there is no doubt 1800 miles from your heart And I can't tell the daylight from the dark I tried talking 'bout yesterday Then my head started spinning There were snakes and sharks in the waters we were swimming But that's all behind us now And all we have are each other I wanna know what it's like again to be lovers 1800 miles from your heart The trees are down and all the roads are blocked There's a headwind pushing and the lights are out I'm all alone, there is no doubt 1800 miles from your heart And I can't tell the daylight from the dark ♪ "Let everybody say what they will" You said that one With a sparkle in your eye It rolled off your tongue I never was big enough To stand down for you No words at all whoever knew No words at all would cut right through 1800 miles from your heart The trees are down and all the roads are blocked There's a headwind pushing and the lights are out I'm all alone, there is no doubt 1800 miles from your heart And I can't tell the daylight from the dark 1800 miles Gotta miss your smile 1800 miles from your heart ♪ Alright this is hidden track one, take 141, go This is Robert Earl Keen, and like Hag's song says in "Kicking Out the Footlights" After 20 years of pickin', I'm still kicking down the wall That is the honest-to-God fact 'Cause I've never kicked down the wall on a hidden track
