JIM MESSINA
"One More Mile"
(Messina)

It was late and the rain was a-fallin'
Through my windshield I could barely see
I kept a-drivin' even though I was fadin'
I had to make it, it was up to me.

I put a tape in the deck I was playin'
A song that made me want to be with you
My heart was beating, I was anticipating
The moment I'd be resting next to you.

I saw a sign up ahead on the highway
It said I'd be there in a little while
I took a look at my watch, it was sayin'
I'm gonna be there in another mile.

One more mile and I'm gonna be knockin' at your front door
Waitin' for the moment I'll be holding you
One more mile and I'm gonna be lookin' at your sweet face
Covered in your lace, making love to you
Making love to you.

I realized that it was two in the mornin'
It had been a while since I had seen a sign
The rain was pouring, it was runnin' on empty
I had to get there, I was short on time.

Then up ahead on the left of the highway
I saw a station and began to smile
I filled it up and then I asked for direction
He pointed down the road another mile.

One more mile and I'm gonna be knockin' at your front door
Waitin' for the moment I'll be holding you
One more mile and I'm gonna be lookin' at your sweet face
Covered in your lace, making love to you, oh yeah.

One more mile and I'm gonna be knockin' at your front door
Waitin' for the moment I'll be holding you
One more mile and I'm gonna be lookin' at your sweet face
Covered in your lace, making love to you.

Making love to you
I've been making love to you
(One more mile, gonna be with you)
Making love to you
(One more mile) I've been making love to you
(Making love) feeling love from you
(Making love) making love to you, making love to you
(Making love)
