Thirty-Two Hundred Miles / Naomis' Song
Thirty two hundred miles, Naomis’ song, Ray Scott and Naomi Woodyatt
On my way to Heaven, I was tryin’ to say goodbye
Little girl, Naomi, lost in Cork Town, delayed flight
The runaway it is wide open, thirty two hundred miles
A bastard slipped that poison in your drink, you couldn’t fight
Thirty two hundred miles across, the distance of your scars
While Hailey’s comet whirls around, collecting fallen stars
From Ireland to Pearson, you were desperate to come home
So shattered, fooled and shaken, burryin’ your pain alone
And I should have been the only thing to be put so deep down
I was flying up to heaven when you got onboard that plane
I was knowin’ that a demon put that poison in your veins
If feelin’ is believing, give me one more final day
And I’d fly across the ocean girl, to blow that man away
You don’t deserve this pain, my baby girl
You’ve given so much love to this big world
He robbed you of your happiness that day
To kill him now, won’t ever take your pain away
If you could fly, you’d have been here, to say goodbye
If planes and comets all were angels, broken stars would never be alone to cry
You don’t deserve this pain, my baby girl
Naomi, daughter, all I ever wanted was for you to know the love in this big broken world
With every final flutter of my blinking eyes
I tried to put another crack in the hand of time
So I could freeze the ocean waves and ride the comets’ torn-up tail across
Thirty two hundred miles of scars and wounds at any cost
Thirty two hundred miles of scars and wounds and tears
To travel through, to bridge the gap t’ween missing years
Little girl, Naomi I will never rest in peace
Until I find you justice so that you can finally trust again and sigh and sleep
Willow
My sweet willow
My willow
We will Rest in peace
