Five Seconds

One hundred miles from the ocean
Millions of miles from the stars
They tell me your place
Is a day's drive away
But it's a five second walk to the bar

Why don't you write me a letter
Tell me what's happening at home
Are your days still in tune
And on long afternoons
Are you still happier on your own?

I've thought about writing you a letter
I've thought of all the things I could say
But my vision gets blurred
So it looks like my words
Are just one more thing I let slip away

Sometimes I think that I'm happy
And grateful for the good things I've got
But when the day closes in
It doesn't matter what I think
It's then that I know that I'm not

And I'm one hundred miles from the ocean
And millions of miles from the stars
They tell me your place
Is a day's drive away
But it's a five second walk to the bar
