24 Hours from Tulsa

Dearest, darling
I had to write to say that I won't be home anymore
'Cause something happened to me while I was driving home
And I'm not the same anymore

Oh, I was only twenty four hours from Tulsa
Only one day away from your arms
I saw a welcoming light
And stopped to rest for the night

And that is when I saw her
As I pulled in outside of the small hotel
She was there and so I walked up to her
Asked where I could get something to eat
And she showed me where

Oh, I was only twenty four hours from Tulsa
Only one day away from your arms
She took me to the caffe
I asked her if she would stay
She said, "ok"

Oh, I was only twenty four hours from Tulsa, no!
Only one day away from your arms
I hate to do this to you
But I love somebody new
What can I do?

Well, I could never, never
Never go home again
