Lyrics
A thousand miles on the road
A thousand miles takes me further from home
Away from you and all that you do
I’m still in love with you
In this empty motel room
Strum my guitar and I sing a song for you
Well, it’s true, I’ve been dreamin’ of you
Lonesome and blue
Well, I wonder if my broken heart will mend
I wonder if I’ll ever see your pretty face again
And hold you in my arms once again
Oh, but until then
Every day’s the same
Well, it starts with whisky and beer and my shame
Got myself to blame for my heartache and my pain
Girl, I’m down here on my knees
Beggin’ darlin’ please can’t you see
Oh please, marry me
A thousand miles on the road
A thousand miles takes me further from home
Away from you, yeah, and all that you do
Well, I wonder if my broken heart will mend
I wonder if I’ll ever see your pretty face again
And hold you in my arms once again
Oh, but until then
Every day’s the same
Well, it starts with whisky and beer and my shame
Got myself to blame for my heartache and my pain
Girl, I’m down here on my knees
Beggin’ darlin’ please can’t you see
Oh now please, marry me
Marry me
Marry me
Marry me
