Lyrics for Song: Twenty Four Hours From Tulsa
Lyrics for Album: Unknwn Albums
Dearest darling
I had to write to say that i won't be home anymore
'cause something happened to me
While i was driving home and i'm not the same anymore
Oh, i was only twenty-four hours from tulsa
Ah, only one day away from your arms
I saw a welcoming night
And stopped to rest for the night
And that is when i saw her
As i pulled in outside of the small hotel 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
Ah, only one day away from your arms
She took me to the cafe
I asked her if she would stay
She said "o. k."
Oh, i was only twenty-four hours from tulsa
Ah, only one day away from your arms
The jukebox started to play
And nighttime turned into day
As we were dancing closely
All of a sudden i lost control as i held her charms
And i caressed her kissed her
Told her i'd die before i would let her out of my arms
Oh, i was only twenty-four hours from tulsa
Ah, 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 can never, never, never
Go home again
