6000 Miles Lyrics - Beautiful You - The Waifs

6000 Miles behind I left you 

6000 Miles feel so alone 

6000 Miles Have to travel 

6000 Miles to get back home 

And I'd have to sail oceans boundless 

I'd have to cross endless skies 

Tonight I do dream I can grow wings 

And I can fly, that 6000 miles back home to you 

I traded you for some great adventure 

Stepped out into worlds unknown 

To far away lands, did I wander 

Deserts and mountains, I now roam 

Well I just cant let go, of your golden shores 

And I still crave your salted air 

And if I was standing on the edge of heaven on earth tonight 

I couldn't care about anything less 

Than 6000 miles 

I never really had much of a way with words 

But god knows, I love to sing 

The feel of the sound coming through me 

The feel of the joy inside that it brings 

And so here tonight I am 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
