Jesse Quin And The Mets - Thousand Mile Stare Lyrics

I was standing cap in hand,
in an empty railway yard
Waiting for the boys to deal the cards.
I had a wallet full of dust,
so I gambled with my dreams.
But I guess they never meant a thing.

My lover said to me,
be careful darling.
The road is not your bride anymore.
The children will not sleep,
My bed's so lonely.
The flicker of a flame going out

Under broken chandelier
Under almond blossom sky
I have danced a thousand nights alone.
In a ghost town in the South
In the mines up in the North
I have worked and I've survived forever.

My lover said to me,
Be careful darling
The road is not your bride, anymore
The children will not sleep,
My bed's so lonely
The flicker of a flame going out

I guess it has to end one day.
I'll make my bed and keep it there.
The bar is so lonely.
The road is so lonely.
My home is so lonely.
The world is so lonely.
