Lyrics

The Last Mile

Lover, listen to me, I cannot see, what you stand to gain
Still, I want you beside me, I need you to guide me, through this terrain

You want me to know, it¹s there in your smile
Every day we have is worthwhile
the question I pose to you
do you think I¹m a fool,
believing that we can go the last mile

Lover, the difference in years, plays on my fears, that time has a way
Yet I, am still taken in, and you can¹t begin, to see past today

Somehow you know, it¹s there in your smile
That every day we have is worthwhile
if you really feel that way,
how can you say,
you¹re not sure that you can go the last mile

Solo

Lover, where is the sign, that you won¹t be mine, after this bend?
Lover, you say we are here, and I should not fear, have we reached the end?

As the tears run down to your smile
I know that this love was worth all the while
the question I pose to you
is how did you know
that I would have to go the last mile?
The last mile.
