Keith Whitley - Ten Feet Away Lyrics

(Billy Sherrill - Troy Seals - Max D. Barnes)

Alone at a corner table
She was watchin' me watchin' her
I was singin' about an old flame burning
She was hangin' on to every word.

I was pouring out my feelings
She was pouring out the wine
Through the smoke and the beer it was perfectly clear
That we were touching each others minds.

Chorus:
It was love ten feet away
Imagine her in my arms with that look on her face
Lyin' somewhere in some shadowy place
It was love just ten feet away.

I just knew my closin' song would do it
I knew that I was heaven bound
I could tell she was moved but before I was through
This stranger walked up and set down.

He was trying his best to impress her
But she never took her eyes off me
When he got up and left I said to myself
Woh-o-woh what a night this will be.

Chorus:
It was love ten feet away
Imagine her in my arms with that look on her face
Lyin' somewhere in some shadowy place
It was love just ten feet away.

Chorus:
It was love ten feet away
Imagine her in my arms with that look on her face
Lyin' somewhere in some shadowy place
It was love just ten feet away...
