In The Distance-Lost Dogs

[ti:In The Distance] [ar:Lost Dogs] [al:Real Men Cry] [by:] [offset:0] [00:00.00]In The Distance (在远处) - Lost Dogs [00:11.92]I watch the moonlight hit her window [00:14.88] [00:16.32]It weaves bright diamonds through her hair [00:19.60] [00:22.45]But I have tarried in these shadows [00:25.47] [00:28.32]In hopes she will not see me here [00:30.88] [00:34.43]I don't know what I've been thinking [00:40.22]I should move on to other business [00:45.84]I've promised I would be strong [00:52.05]And only watch her in the distance [00:53.74] [01:09.76]I know the war claimed her young husband [01:12.37] [01:15.58]And so her life's been mighty rough [01:19.20] [01:21.65]And she doesn't need more sorrow [01:23.51] [01:27.32]I have given her enough [01:30.31] [01:33.02]So I will try to keep my mind off [01:38.98]My poor aching heart's insistence [01:41.26] [01:44.49]She must learn to live without me [01:49.43] [01:50.42]So I'll just watch her in the distance [01:52.69] [02:08.57]I recall the fight in Franklin [02:13.80]A Yankee bullet laid me down [02:19.69]That night I watched her in the graveyard [02:25.34]Where they put me in the ground [02:31.47]That's when I heard the angels calling [02:37.05]And felt the pul of love's resistance [02:43.24]So the Good Lord let me linger [02:45.91] [02:48.74]So I could watch her in the distance [02:50.84] [03:06.82]If I wrapped cold arms around her [03:10.35] [03:12.33]If I gently spoke her name [03:18.15]She couldn't bare my haunted whisper [03:23.99]And so there's nothing to be gained [03:29.70]Perhaps my time has come for leaving [03:32.36] [03:35.62]Time to lay down all my defenses [03:40.65] [03:41.42]And be content with having loved her [03:45.61] [03:48.33]Even in the distance [03:49.39] [03:53.50]For I've been blessed for having loved her [03:56.41] [03:58.32]Even in the distance
