Story Behind The Song
When my wife and I were dating, she didn't pick up the phone one night after I had hung up from a good conversation with her. Worried, I drove across town to her house to make sure she was ok. I knew then how much I cared for her and how much I needed to know she was all right.

Lyrics
GOING OUT OF MY WAY
No hill too steep
No distance too far to reach you
No thought too strong
No word too hard to take
I am your friend and I?ll mend you
When you are breaking or aching from the pain
I don?t mind going out of my way.
When your fire is weak
I?ll keep you warm in sleep and in safety
When you?re hungry and dry
I?ll be by to fill your cup and plate
And at the slightest doubt that you are without
Someone to comfort you, I will run to you and stay
I don?t mind going out of my way.
For all your kindness
Has brought me a mind that is peaceful
All your kisses have answered the wishes I have made
And at each gentle touch of your hand is enough
To remind me that I am finally awake
I don?t mind going out of my way
I will see for you when you are blinded by your worries
And I?ll hear for you when you are deafened by stormy days
I?ll lift the load from your shoulders
When you are grounded and bound by the weight
I don?t mind going out of my way.
