Smoke from a Distant Fire

Lyrics

You left me here on your way to paradise
 You pulled the rug right out from under my life
 I know where you goin' to, I knew when you came home last night
 'Cause your eyes had a mist from the smoke of a distant fire
 ♪
 ♪
 Lord, I was stunned shoulda seen it come a long time ago
 When I realized, the reality gave me a roll
 If things are the same, then explain why your kiss is so cold
 And that mist in your eyes feels like rain on the fire in my soul
 ♪
 This lying and cryin' is upsettin' and gettin' nowhere
 It don't stack up, so slack up and pack up, I just don't care
 Don't let the screen door hit you on your way out
 Don't you drown when your dreamboat runs onto the ground
 ♪
 I'd just like to know, do you love him or just making time
 By filling his glass with your fast flowing bitter-sweet lime
 You'll face the aftertaste when you come home late some night
 With your eyes all a-mist from the smoke of a distant fire
 Girl, your eyes have a mist from the smoke of a distant fire
 (Girl, your eyes have a mist from the smoke of a distant fire)
 Girl, your eyes have a mist from the smoke of a distant fire
 (Girl, your eyes have a mist from the smoke of a distant fire)
 Girl, your eyes have a mist from the smoke of a distant fire
 (Mist in your eyes from a distant fire)
 Girl, your eyes have a mist from the smoke of a dist-
 A distant fire
