6000 Miles

6000 miles behind I left you
 6000 miles feels so alone
 6000 miles I'd have to travel
 6000 miles to get back home
 I'd have to sail oceans boundless
 I'd have to cross endless skies
 Some nights I do dream I can grow wings
 And I can fly that 6000 miles back home to you, mmm
 I traded you for some great adventure
 Stepped out into a world unknown
 To far away lands did I wander
 Whose deserts and mountains I now roam, whoa
 But I just can't let go of your golden shores
 And I still crave your salty air
 And if I was standing on the edge of Heaven or earth tonight
 I couldn't care about anything less than 6000 miles, mmm
 ♪
 Oh, I've never really had much of a way with words
 But God knows I love to sing
 The feel of this sound coming through me
 The feel of the joy inside that it brings
 And so, yeah, tonight I'll be your minstrel
 And you be my silent beating drum
 Whenever that music plays inside us
 Not even oceans, not even oceans can keep us apart
 Not even 6000 miles, mmm
 ♪
 6000 miles and get back home to you
