Lyrics
Distantly in love By: jimmy buffett 1983 For jane and savannah jane Payphones all were ringing as the crowd went roarin' by Lovely dancers swayin' to an island lullaby Beside the southern ocean taking stock of what's to be Writing you this letter that you'll probably never see Chorus: But I can't help but be Ruled by inconsistencies Not unique just distantly in love Tried to phone from paris thinking things could be arranged Me and you would rendezvous but I found your number changed So I drove to san remo where the crazy painter dwells Toasted our old photograph still up there on his shelf Chorus: But I can't help but be Ruled by my antiquities Not unique just distantly in love I can't be the one to fill Your times and all your places I can't be the one to fill Your blanks and empty spaces I heard it from a friend of ours I saw in timber bay You had a new lover who had stolen you away That could be the reason that I never got in touch May present slight problems if he loves you half as much Chorus: As I who can't help but be Ruled by my antiquities Not unique just distantly in love You know I can't help but be Part of my own philosophies Not unique just distantly in love - notes: Mandolin: josh leo
