Lyrics
My love, she is patient
She is gentle and kind
She forgives me my trespasses
She is often on my mind.
She is here for the weekend
For the weekend she will stay
But the rest of the time
My love is fifty miles away.
Chorus:
Fifty miles away
Fifty miles away
She is close but yet so far
Fifty miles away.
I don't sing love songs
They sometimes don't sound true
And I am distrustful
Because I don't know what to do.
But my love, she is patient
She gently leads the way.
She is here for the weekend
Then she's fifty miles away.
(chorus)
Not very close
Not very far,
It's hard to stay out of your arms.
It's not a long distance
But it's still too far away
Know that I'm still with you
Fifty miles away.
Only fifty miles away.
