So Many Miles

These feet have walked so many miles

And on so many continents

Still this heart is beating wild

As yet of no great consequence

But oh,

When the rhythm is right

I catch a wind and fly

Far beyond these Paris nights

Into another consciousness

The fortuneteller isn’t right

It’s scary but it’s glorious

And oh,

I know this time

I’ll catch a wind and fly

So many miles

Those days are gone!

You’re still alive!

And after so,

So many miles

I open up my weary eyes

To gaze upon the firmament

Again I’m under foreign skies

But longing’s all that’s permanent

And oh,

I know this time

I’ll catch a wind and fly

So many miles

Those days are gone!

You’re still alive!

And after so,

So many miles!
