Has anyone heard of this song fragment ?

Sunshine – Hello. I stumbled onto your great site a while ago. Thought it might be a good time to finally ask this question. Is anyone familiar with this snatch of lyric? “You can run from what you want, but the miles will just make you…”???? I’ve searched different lyric sites in vain. A friend who left this earth much too soon gave me this bit of a song. He loved music from the 70’s, so I was hoping it might “ring a bell.” It might be a country song. It might even be from the 1980’s. No 80’s allowed. …

But, think about it……… Lamplight Rock on (one of the best base-lines ever) America (Ameri ca ca ca ca ca ah ha ha…..) Stardust Hold Me Close Rolling Stone Gonna Make You a Star I know he went a bit naff in the 80s, but his 70s output was actually very good. …

I started building Escape in 2005 and in it’s early form I had the pleasure of a great 70s community. Sadly with Escape’s new design we couldn’t incorporate the old threads into the new forum but so we don’t lose all those magical old chats we’ve collected them all here for you to go back and read.
