lyrics

Hand me now my walking shoes,
And shut the door behind me as I go,
Oh I know I’ve been a long time gone,
And it’ll be a long time before I’m home,
You promise me that you’ll be true ‘til I’m coming home to you,
Hand me now my walking shoes,
And shut the door behind me as I go.

The nights are cold and the days are long,
As I wander north and south and God knows where,
Oh my love, you’re waiting patiently,
And I promise you that I will soon be there,
I hope you can occupy your time, ‘til my hand’s in yours and yours in mine,
The nights are cold and the days are long,
As I wander north and south and God knows where.

Of all the pleasures in life I’ve found,
There’s not a place so sweet as in your arms,
And I just know that I won’t sleep sound,
Until I’m lying there away from harm,
Wet your pillow with your tears, time will make the reasons clear,
Of all the pleasures in life I’ve found,
There’s not a place so sweet as in your arms.

A thousand miles and a hundred days,
And I’ll be makin’ my way on back to you,
We’ve been together four years and a day,
And I know my love that we can see it through,
With each rising of the sun, a hundred days is closer to none,
A thousand miles and a hundred days,
And I’ll be makin’ my way on back to you.
