SMOKE FROM A DISTANCE FIRE

YOU LEFT ME HERE ON YOUR WAY TO PARADISE
YOU PULLED THE CHAIR RIGHT OUT FROM UNDER MY LIFE
I KNOW WHERE YOU GO TO, I KNEW WHEN YOU CAME HOME LAST NIGHT
CAUSE YOUR EYES HAD A MIST FROM THE SMOKE OF A DISTANT FIRE

LORD I WAS STRONG SHOULD HAVE SEEN IT COME LONG TIME AGO
WHEN I REALIZED THE REALITY GAVE ME A ROLL
IF THINGS ARE THE SAME THEN EXPLAIN WHY YOUR KISS IS SO COLE
AND THAT MIST IN YOUR EYES FEELS LIKE RAIN ON THE FIRE OF MY SOUL

THIS LYING AND CRYING'S UPSETTING AND GETTING NOWHERE
IT DON'T STACK UP SO SLACK UP AND PACKUP I JUST DON'T CARE

DON'T LET THE SCREEN DOOR HIT YOU ON YOUR WAY OUT
DON'T YOU DROWN WHEN YOUR DREAM BOAT RUNS ONTO THE GROUND
I'D JUST LIKE TO KNOW DO YOU LOVE HIM OR JUST MAKIN' TIME
BY FILLIN' THE GLASS WITH YOUR FAST FLOWIN' BITTER SWEET LINE
WELL, HE'LL FACE THE AFTER TASTE WHEN YOU COME HOME LATE SOME NIGHT
WITH YOUR EYES ALL A MIST FROM THE SMOKE OF A DISTANT FIRE
GIRL, YOUR EYES HAVE A MIST FROM THE SMOKE OF A DISTANCE FIRE
