Eight More Miles
Eight more miles and I'll be homeBack in your grace where I belongTonight I'm sleeping in my own bedWith my blue tick feather pillow underneath my headI feel the wheels on sixty five I don't know when, felt so aliveEight more miles Eight more miles and I'll be homeSince I've been gone everything's changedThere's been two weeks of steady rainAnd the dogwoods bloom, pink and whiteAnd that damp smell of new cut grass is everywhere tonightSweet sunny sound, I never knewJust how much I could miss youEight more miles Eight more miles and I'll be homeI crossed the Rockies on a silver trainI've walked from Burghan in a pouring rainI met with strangers I came to loveAnd I've gotten drunk with Chieftains in a Dublin hotel pubAnd I dearly love these memoriesSongtexteBut all that matters right now to meIs eight more miles Eight more miles and I'll be homeEight more miles Eight more miles and I'll be home
