Smoke From A Distant Fire - Conway Twitty

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

Lord, I was stung, 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

This lying, and cryin’s upsettin' and getting no where

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 dream boat runs onto the ground

I’d just like to know, do you love him or just making time

By filling his glass with your fast flowing bitter-sweet lies?

He’ll face the after taste when you come home late some night

With your eyes all a mist from the smoke of a distant, a distant fire

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

Well 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, a distant fire
