Blown down the highway by two different winds Lord only knows when I'll see you again You're 'bout as close as the stars up above You're my long distance love Kentucky Blue-bird I heard your song today But when I try to touch you, you fly away Verse Blue is a feeling I'm learning so well Turn on the TV in another hotel Turn down the volume and stare at the wall God I wish you would call Kentucky Blue-bird I heard your song today But when I try to touch you, you fly away Bridge How I hate the miles between us They get longer each day I had this dream and you should have seen us Holding each other and drifting away Kentucky Blue-bird I heard your song today But when I try to touch you, you fly away Kentucky Blue-bird I heard your song today But when I try to touch you, you fly away Outro you fly away
