Lyrics of Smoke From A Distant Fire by Sanford Townsend Band

verse

You left me here on your way to paradise
You pulled the rug right out from under my life
I know where you goin' to, I knew when you came home last night
'Cause your eyes had a mist from the smoke of a distant fire

verse

Lord, I was stunned shoulda seen it come a long time ago
When I realized, the reality gave me a roll
If things are the same, then explain why your kiss is so cold
And that mist in your eyes feels like rain on the fire in my soul

verse

This lying and cryin' is upsettin' and gettin' nowhere
It don't stack up, so slack up and pack up, I just don't care
Don't let the screen door hit you on your way out
Don't you drown when your dreamboat runs onto the ground

verse

I'd just like to know, do you love him or just making time
By filling his glass with your fast flowing bitter-sweet lime
You'll face the aftertaste when you come home late some night
With your eyes all a-mist from the smoke of a distant fire

chorus

Girl, your eyes have a mist from the smoke of a distant fire
(Girl, your eyes have a mist from the smoke of a distant fire)
Girl, your eyes have a mist from the smoke of a distant fire
(Girl, your eyes have a mist from the smoke of a distant fire)
Girl, your eyes have a mist from the smoke of a distant fire

outro

(Mist in your eyes from a distant fire)
Girl, your eyes have a mist from the smoke of a dist-
A distant fire
Writer(s): John Townsend, Ed Sanford, Steven Stewart
