lyrics

700 miles left to your door step
fighting back sleep fighting back hardship
long evening stretching out into night
and I’m trying to to get myself
back to you

The weekend’s half over
the trip a total waste
even on the phone
all I see is your face
white line trance
and stale coffee trace
and I’m trying to get myself
back to you

Chorus
A chance encounter
a lovers game
we said goodbye
out in a freezing April rain
but the ache of rejection
left me wanting you
Now I know what’s right
in this dark and lonely night

Bridge
Strange streets stranger places
Obscure signs and empty faces
Thinking about Oklahoma
but all I see is Santa Rosa
and I’m trying to get myself
back to you.

Chorus
