"Six Feet Away" lyrics

"Six Feet Away"

He said I'll see you later baby
I should be home by six tonight
Then just like every other morning
He blew her a kiss and he waved goodbye

She went to town to do some shopping
Had lunch with her best friend
Typical Tuesday afternoon
Until that awful call came in

Nobody knows the hour
Nobody knows the way
On any given day
We're only six feet away

They say he never knew what hit him
The other driver was on the phone
But how it happened ain't what matters
He ain't coming back – he's gone gone gone

Nobody knows the hour
Nobody knows the way
On any given day
We're only six feet away

I can't help but wonder was he in the wrong place
Or right where he was meant to be
Someday death is gonna stare us in the face
Where and when is the mystery

Nobody knows the hour
Nobody knows the way
On any given day
We're only, only six feet away

Nobody knows the hour
Nobody knows the way
On any given day
We're only six feet away
