700 Miles

M.L. Kortes

It's 700 miles from my love to me

700 miles

Across the mountains across the sea

700 miles

The sun is hot and the night gets cold

She loves me young though she's growing old

I looked for silver and I found gold

700 miles

I got a long long way to go

700 miles

Destiny still escapes me so

700 miles

I'm turning left and I'm falling right

I dance so hard till I lose my sight

But still see you in the starlit night

700 miles

I kept the gold that you gave to me

700 miles

I keep it safe where the eye can't see

700 miles

I miss you more than I thought I would

My heart won't cry though it knows it should

I'd bring you back if I only could

700 miles

It's 700 miles from my love to me

700 miles

It might as well be eternity

700 miles

Heaven's calling to you daily

You'll slip away but you'll always be

Close enough to believe in me

700 miles

Close enough to believe in me

Close enough to believe in me

Close enough I can almost see

700 miles

700 miles
