Twenty Four Hours From Tulsa [Hebrew translation]

Dearest darling

I had to write to say

That I won't be home any more

For something happened to me

While I was driving home

And I'm not the same any more

Oh, I was only twenty four hours from Tulsa

Ah, only one day away from your arms

I saw a welcoming light

And stopped to rest for the night

And that is when I saw her

As I pulled in outside of the small hotel

She was there

And so I walked up to her

Asked where I could get something to eat

And she showed me where

Oh, I was only twenty four hours from Tulsa

Ah, only one day away from your arms

She took me to the café

I asked her if she would stay

She said, "Okay"

Oh, I was only twenty four hours from Tulsa

Ah, only one day away from your arms

The jukebox started to play

And night time turned into day

As we were dancing closely

All of a sudden I lost control

As I held her charms

And I caressed her, kissed her

Told her I'd die

Before I would let her out of my arms

Oh, I was only twenty four hours from Tulsa

Ah, only one day away from your arms

I hate to do this to you

But I love somebody new

What can I do

When I can never, never, never go home again?
