LyricsTen Thousand Miles © 2008/2012 Jim Ferrie MusicMusic/ Lyrics by Jim Ferrie It's 4 o'clock in the morning, But there's no sleep on me So I'm surfing a missing loved ones site Hoping you've been seen I see your face when I'm dreamin' And my heart skips a beat when I pick up the phone or think it's you Walkin' down the street No I'm not one for prayin' much But lately I've been doin' it more I would give up this fight for a sign you're alright Wish you'd call or write or just come walkin' Through that old front door 'Coz if you need me I'll board a plane An' if the airport's closed I'll take a train An' if the rails are broke I'll take a bus An' if the bus breaks down I'll walk Ten Thousand Miles To bring you home again. Your friends keep asking about you They search like me I guess For an answer to why you up'd and left Only you know best I ache to know that you're happy And if you've found a friend And if you're needing some cash to make ends meet Tell me where to send.... No I'm not one for prayin' much But lately I've been doin' it more I would give up this fight for a sign you're alright Wish you'd call or write or just come walkin' through That old front door 'Coz if you need me I'll board a plane An' if the airport's closed I'll take a train An' if the rails are broke I'll take a bus An' if the bus breaks down I'll walk Ten Thousand Miles To bring you home again. If you're happy I'll leave you alone, I'll be hurtin', but I gotta to know And if you're needin' a friend And you're feelin' you've come to the end Call me and I'll be there, By land by sea or by air, I'm ready to go 'Coz if you need me I'll board a plane An' if the airport's closed I'll take a train An' if the rails are broke I'll take a bus An' if the bus breaks down I'll walk Ten Thousand Miles To bring you home again. |
