2400 miles away Oh under some old towne Micanopy stars While in the city of angels, one angel lays I'm dreaming of my lover counting sheep and scars
Oh it ain't like we're living as lackadaisical Kings It ain't like we're all that alone in a world not fit for a queen Open the gates and let the flood carry dirt out
For when the last hour dies and your eyes grow tired And the booze don't work no more And the Bible pages have disintegrated Found cracks down in the floor It's you and I alone, walking to the sea You and I alone is all I ever need You and I alone is all I ever dream and where I need to be
2400 miles away Under some Southern California star While in the city of angels, that angel lays Calling to her lover on an old sand bar
Oh, it ain't like the given time will wait for our fare It ain't like if I don't close my eyes I'll be cursed if I can't meet you there Open the gates and let the flood carry dirt out
For when the last hour dies and your eyes grow tired And the booze don't work no more And the Bible pages have disintegrated Found cracks down in the floor It's you and I alone walking to the sea You and I alone it's all I ever need You and I alone is all I ever dream and where I need to be
2400 miles away I'm laid out lonely begging for a dream Of you and I alone walking to the sea You and I alone is everything I need Yeah you and I alone is all I ever dream and where I need to be Yeah you and I alone walking to the sea You and I alone everything I need Yeah you and I alone everything I dream and where I need to be Yeah you and I alone all I ever dream and where I need to be
