Twenty Four Hours From Tulsa Lyrics - Burt Bacharach

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

'Cause something happened to me while I was driving home 

And I'm not the same anymore 

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 motel 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
