Golden Earring - Distant Love lyrics

It was a night like any other night As it moved into a new day Came up to a crossroad Colors turnin' to grey You had troubles way back home So you had a good excuse How could you resist this anyway Her big brown eyes made you lose your mind She knocked your defenses down All you could do was look at her While she watched you coming down She said pedal to the metal Just a 7 minute drive Next thing you remember Is a love sentence for life Heaven came to earth, like and angel from above You had to slip away from it You had to run away from her And you knew she wouldn't let you Two hearts on fire One dream tangled and wired Two bodies swaying Each one alone To the beat of a distant love Time can't heal the wounds of separation The pain just grows in your imagination A sudden glance, a message in your notebook wakes you up But when you call she's always off the hook So you get yourself a ticket and you don't wanna know why You've found out you're an expert on makin' up lies You once traded a dream for the life you're livin' in But you can't run away from it You better try to forget her and you know she won't let you Two hearts on fire One dream tangled and wired Two bodies swaying One dream never fading Each one alone To the beat of a distant love
