Three More Miles
(By Ky Babyn)
Verse 1
I have three more miles
Three more miles and then I'm home
I'm tired of driving down the backroads
Road part your gravel
For this clydesdale is being driven by a mad man's mind
If you lose the reins he's going to take your life
How I love the night time
Hands clenched tight knuckles turnin white
Headlights a burning bright
Horizon lines and windshields for gunsights
Love wait up, my love wait up
I hope you don't worry
keep that wine glass heavy
and your kisses a ready
Chorus
Northern lights be my compass and guide
Dance your light across my sky
Bring me home to where my lover lies
Steer me away from the cold
Frozen rivers and power poles
Melt that hoar frost on the lashes of my midnight eyes
(ooh ooh) x4
Verse 2
I had three more miles
Three more miles, I should have been home
But now I'm on a black cat's path, parked on the crossroads
Ditch clear your animals
I've turned around my foot's comin down
Like a holy hammer on the devil's anvil
Burnin bright my gas light
Shake the wheel with some speed hear the demons scream
Turn around and bring her about
Hopefully you'll figure her out
This sailor's very worried
No life preserver and he's in a hurry
He's lost amongst the prairies
he'll drown in this sea of wheat
