Two Days from Knowing

(Gillian Welch - Matt Rollings)



Now the night's turned pink on the eastern edges

But the sky is cold and still

And I wonder if it's the sunrise warming the desert

Or the lights of Tucson from over the hill.



It's a hard way to love you this long distance romance

Always stopping and starting again

I don't mind the miles when I'm out on the highway

But even when I'm with you the miles just don't end.



And I'm two days from knowing whether I can be strong

If I spend one more night in your arms

So I've a mind to keep going and drive right past your door

But I'm two days from knowing for sure.



As the night closes down dawn fills the horizon

And stretches it out at the scenes

And I'm not sure if tomorow I'm gonna be any closer

To closing the distance between you and me.



And I'm two days from knowing whether I can be strong

If I spend one more night in your arms

So I've a mind to keep going and drive right past your door

But I'm two days from knowing for sure.



Yeah I've a mind to keep going and drive right past your door

But I'm two days from knowing for sure.



As the night closes down dawn fills the horizon

And stretches it out at the scenes

And I'm not sure if tomorow I'm gonna be any closer

To closing the distance between you and me...
