24 Hours From Tulsa

Dearest
Darling

I had to write to say that
I won't be home anymore

For something happened to me
As I was driving home
And I'm not the same anymore

Oh I was only 24 hours from Tulsa
Oh 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 him
As I pulled in outside
Of the small motel he was there

And so I walked up to him
Asked where I could get something
To eat and he showed me where

Oh I was only 24 hours from Tulsa
Oh only one day away from your arms

He took me to a cafe
And he asked me if I would stay
I said okay

Oh I was only 24 hours from Tulsa
Oh only one day away from your arms

The jukebox started to play
And nighttime turned into day

As we were dancing closely all of a sudden
I lost control as he held me tight

And then he kissed me caressed me
Told me he'd die before he would let me out
Of his arms

Oh I was only 24 hours from Tulsa
Oh only one day away from your arms

I hate to do this to you
But I found somebody new
What can I do

And I can never never never
Go home again
