Stu Larsen - The Mile lyrics

[Verse 1] I had never seen the snow Never sailed upon the seas I was busy making plans To build a fortress in the trees [Verse 2] I'd ride my bicycle Down the lane and back again Talking to the birds And my imaginary friends [Verse 3] And I'd want to run away Go as far as I could see But I'd always turn around To find familiarity Right where it should be [Chorus] I'll be gone, running on the mile And I'll be gone, running on the mile And I'll be gone, running on the mile And I'll be gone, running on the mile [Verse 4] And oh, my love Is there hope for yesterday? Because I'm following my heart And it's taking me away [Verse 5] I am moving on I do not know where I will go But I'm beckoned by the sky In the river down below [Verse 6] I've only got one pair of shoes Comforting these weary feet 'Cause a man who owns too much Is like a song without a beat Left feeling incomplete [Outro] And I'll be gone, running on the mile And I'll be gone, running on the mile And I'll be gone, running on the mile And I'll be gone, running on the mile I'll be gone, running on the mile And I'll be gone, running on the mile And I'll be gone, running on the mile I'll be gone, running on the mile Oh my lord, running on the mile
