Mile After MileAs I walk along the walls of stone I am reminded once again, that I’m all alone When the day is done and light begins to fail My memories linger and my mind begins to wail chorus The only thing that keeps me going mile after mile Is I know that some day soon, very soon, I will see your face and smile It keeps me going mile after mile The night passes slowly as blackness gives way to day This is how it’s been, since you went away I cry myself to sleep some nights listening to the rain But the howling wind brings a special kind of pain chorus The only thing that keeps me going mile after mile Is I know that some day soon, very soon, I will see your face and smile It keeps me going mile after mile Come back again before I’ve hardened my heart Please come home again before I’ve fallen apart There is no reason to leave these days, there is no reason to go But I’ll wait for you until the winds forget to blow chorus The only thing that keeps me going mile after mile Is I know that some day soon, very soon, I will see your face and smile It keeps me going mile after mile I’ll wait for you until the rain no longer falls I’ll wait for you until the fuchsias have hidden all the walls As I walk along the wall of stones I can feel the weariness gathering in my bones chorus The only thing that keeps me going mile after mile Is I know that some day soon, very soon, I will see your face and smile It keeps me going mile after mile |
