3​,​000 Miles

from Walking Into Brooklyn by James Tristan Redding

/

about

A first of sorts, a last as well. Technique versus content.

lyrics

Lately I'm lonely, Baby I'm blue
Honey I'm hoping, you're hoping too
Baby we're broken, lately we lie
Honey it's hopeless, baby goodbye

Sugar I shiver
Darling you dream
Sweetheart the saddle
Loosen the chain

Sugar you shouldn't
Darling you don't
Sweetheart the sawdust
Lay down alone

Been driving in circles for 3,000 miles
Maybe I better go dry out for awhile
The engine is cryin', the wheels are a blur
But first thing tomorrow, I'll be 3,000 miles from her

Sugar my shoulders
Darling your dress
Sweetheart the seasons
Leave me a mess

Sugar the shot gun
Darling the dirt
Sweetheart your secrets
Light up a smoke

Been driving in circles for 3,000 miles
Maybe I better go dry out for awhile
The engine is cryin', the wheels are a blur
But first thing tomorrow, I'll be 3,000 miles from her
