500 Miles Lyrics

Two hundred nights in a cage like this

I spend too many nights with no light in them
Five hundred miles with no shoes at all

I walked so many miles, still I cant reach you

I reached a point where no compass spies

We always knew they were idle lies

You found a bag full of gold that day

Did you throw it away?

Or did you pay to stay?

I built a boat and sailed the seven seas alone

Just to drown on my own in the ocean wide

I crossed the bridge just to burn it down again
You climbed the mountain - did you find me then?

How many times must I fall

Before I fall in love for sure

How many wonders must I recall

Before you fall in love for sure

Two hundred times have I told you so

Five hundred until you stay - for sure
Two hundred nights, did I force you? - no

Five hundred more until you leave me for sure

I built a boat and sailed the seven seas alone

Just to drown on my own in the oceaqn wide

I crossed the bridge just to burn it down again

You climbed the mountain - did you find me then?

How many times must I fall

Before I fall in love for sure

How many wonders must I recall

Before you fall in love for sure
