DISTANT LANDS LYRICS
BY ROB HOLDFORD
Verse One
She made the small-town paper
When she disappeared that night
Sixteen going on twenty-five
Gonna run, run for her life
As she scaled the prison walls
With the help of a westbound train
She raised her face to the velvet sky
And the world could hear her scream
Chorus
Sailing with the tide the distant lands
Where the streets are gold
Steering by the stars to distant lands
Where the truth can be told
Sailing with the tide to distant lands
Where dreams come true
Steering by the stars to distant lands
What about you?
Verse Two
A single light bulb hung from a wire
in the Plaza Suite Motel
Another pimp beat her up last night
Took her money for tickets to synthetic Hell
As she raised her prison walls
With the help of a light blue flame
She raised her face to the neon sky
Then deep in her mind you could hear her scream
Chorus
Sailing with the tide the distant lands
Where the streets are gold
Steering by the stars to distant lands
Where the truth can be told
Sailing with the tide to distant lands
Where dreams come true
Steering by the stars to distant lands
What about you?
Verse 3
He was just an average Joe
Looking for some and ready to pay
Until he recognized her face
From a poster that read
Have you seen my child
He took her down to the station
Bought her a ticket on an eastbound train
She hung her head out the window
And the world could hear her scream
Chorus
Sailing with the tide the distant lands
Where the streets are gold
Steering by the stars to distant lands
Where the truth can be told
Sailing with the tide to distant lands
where dreams come true
Steering by the stars to distant lands
What about you?
