From the recording A Girl Down In Mexico
Lyrics
VERSE
I’m in Atlanta; you’re in Nashville
I could move, but it wouldn’t matter
’Cause I’d still be standin’ still
VERSE
It’s like gazin’ on a far-away star
It’s not the space; it’s the distance
How far apart we really are
CHORUS
While it’s just two inches on the map
It might as well be the other side of the world
Is there anything I can do to close the gap
Between your heart and me, girl?
TURNAROUND/VERSE
I know you’re torn, just not enough
I’m in your heart, but he’s there with you
And his love is hangin’ tough
VERSE
All I can do, try to get through
Try to move a little closer
Please let me show my love to you
Repeat CHORUS/SOLO/BRIDGE
Now I’ve grown so very tired of staring at the map
So don’t be surprised if I move next door
Repeat CHORUS/TAG
What can I do to close the gap?
Just two inches on the map
