Gone the Distance Lyrics


Ocean wide and water deep
Noddin' off you fall asleep
No one understands their pain
Look outside it's about to rainFallin' out of a blue sky
Walk the dog and swat the fly
No one's 'round to recognize
Shades of black behind blue eyesNow you've gotta prove it all to me
Or you can let it pass just like a speeding car
Is there something left here you gotta see?
Or is it all a million miles from where you are?Trees are tall and grass is green
One's alone and two's a team
Play guitar and make a scene
Read about it in a magazineTired of playin' what to be?
Friend is now an enemy
Slam a door and break a glass
From there to here has gone too fastNow you've gotta prove it all to me
Then you let it slide to somewhere far
Is there something left here you gotta see?

Or is it all a million miles from where you are?

Stan Ridgway's tenure with Wall of Voodoo may have launched him to semi-stardom, but his solo musical style is more blues rock, almost Americana-ish, than WoV's big hit "Mexican Radio." Multiple solo albums and collaborations later, Ridgway morphs with each release. Multi-instrumentalist singer-songwriter Stan Ridgway was the original lead singer for the band Wall of Voodoo, singing on their debut EP and first two albums, including their only hit song, "Mexican Radio".
