Lyrics for Distantly In Love by JIMMY BUFFETT:
| | | Artist: | JIMMY BUFFETT |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | Distantly In Love | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 87 | | | | Lyrics: | Pay phones all were ringing as the crowd went roarin' by
Lovely dancers swaying to an island
lullaby
Beside the southern ocean taking stock of what's to be
Writing you this letter that
you'll probably never see
But I can't help but be
Ruled by inconsistency
Not unique
just distantly in love
Tried to phone from Paris thinking
Things could be
arranged
Me and you could rendezvous
But I found your number changed
So I drove to San
Remo where
The crazy painter dwells
And toasted our old photographs
Still up there on
his shelf
But I can't help but be
Ruled by my antiquity
Not unique just distantly
in love
I can't be the one to fill
Your times and all your places
I can't be the one to
fill
Your blanks and empty spaces
I heard it from a friend of ours
I saw in Timber
Bay
That you had a new lover who had
Stolen you away
That could be be the reason
that
I never got in touch
And may present slight problems
If he loves you half as
much
As I who can't help but be
Ruled by my antiquity
Not unique just distantly in
love
You know I can't help but be
Part of my own philosophy
Not unique just distantly in
