Dearest darling | |
I had to write to say that I won't be home any more | |
For something happened to me | |
While I was driving home and I'm not the same any more | |
Oh, I was only twenty four hours from Tulsa | |
Ah, 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 | |
Ah, only one day away from your arms | |
She took me to the café | |
I asked her if she would stay | |
She said, "Okay" | |
Oh, I was only twenty four hours from Tulsa | |
Ah, only one day away from your arms | |
The jukebox started to play | |
And night time turned into day | |
As we were dancing closely | |
All of a sudden I lost control as I held her charms | |
And I caressed her, kissed her | |
Told her I'd die before I would let her out of my arms | |
Oh, I was only twenty four hours from Tulsa | |
Ah, only one day away from your arms | |
I hate to do this to you | |
But I love somebody new | |
What can I do | |
When I can never, never, never go home again? |
Dearest darling | |
I had to write to say that I won' t be home any more | |
For something happened to me | |
While I was driving home and I' m not the same any more | |
Oh, I was only twenty four hours from Tulsa | |
Ah, 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 | |
Ah, only one day away from your arms | |

She said, " Okay" | |
Oh, I was only twenty four hours from Tulsa | |
Ah, only one day away from your arms | |

And night time turned into day | |
As we were dancing closely | |
All of a sudden I lost control as I held her charms | |
And I caressed her, kissed her | |
Told her I' d die before I would let her out of my arms | |
Oh, I was only twenty four hours from Tulsa | |
Ah, only one day away from your arms | |
