|
New Orleans could not find the groove |
|
In Nashville the grass did not seem blue |
|
And Denver did not seem more than three feet high |
|
The Empire did not scrape the sky |
|
And the White |
|
House seemed gray |
|
When you're 3000 miles away |
|
In Boston there was no common ground |
|
And Long Island did not make a sound |
|
Niagara rises and |
|
Old Faithful falls |
|
At Camden they did not play ball |
|
But who cares if they play |
|
When you're 3000 miles away |
|
CHORUS Your absence changes me and everything seems so wrong |
|
But with no sense of irony |
|
I write you this sweet love song today 3000 miles away |
|
Chicago could not muster a breeze |
|
And there was a blizzard in |
|
The Keys New |
|
England's charms were wasted on these eyes |
|
I fear it came as no surprise |
|
Because it's just another day |
|
When you're 3000 miles away |
|
REPEAT CHO |
|
RUS Distance is my tutor |
|
So well he's teaching me |
|
In the education of appreciation |
|
And I got my |
|
PH.D. In Georgia you're all that's on my mind |
|
In Cape Cod the ocean was untied |
|
And the motor city threw a rod |
|
And now I'm praying to you |
|
God Take me home to that face 3000 miles away |
