Album: A Man Ain't Made Of StoneThirteen Mile Goodbye
(Gary Burr/Gerry House)
The sign said Synonara in the Japanese restaurant
The billboard said ";There's No Tomorrow"; in the Christ Church parking lot
The laundry mat said, ";You're All Washed Up";
How can I disagree?
And the street sign
Did everyone know but me?
She must have gone
To a lot of trouble
I got the truth
Right betweent he eyes
Don't know how she found the time
But between her door and mine
Was a thirteen mile goodbye
Now this can't be paranoia
It's just coincidence
At the Palace Theatre on the corner's playing
";Gone With The Wind";
And there's one more grim reminder
Every twenty feet
How come I never noticed
This is a dead end street?
She must have gone
To a lot of trouble
I got the truth
Right betweent he eyes
Don't know how she found the time
But between her door and mine
Was a thirteen mile goodbye
I see the Y in the YMCA
I've been asking myself that all day
She put a closed sign on every door
Just to proved the point if I wasn't sure
She must have gone
To a lot of trouble
I got the truth
Right betweent he eyes
Don't know how she found the time
But between her door and mine
Was a thirteen mile goodbye
