Quote by Hal David
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? And I can never, never, never... go home again.
Summary
This quote is from the song "24 Hours from Tulsa" by Gene Pitney. It captures the narrator's emotions as he contemplates being so close to the person he desires but ultimately choosing to leave them for someone else. The remorseful tone reflects the pain of breaking someone's heart despite the lingering feelings. The line "I can never, never, never... go home again" suggests that the decisions made have irreversible consequences, symbolizing the loss of a once-cherished relationship.
