A thousand miles I've roamed A hundred flights I've flown Trying my best just to get back to you Many rivers I've crossed Just to pay the cost Trying my best just to get back to you I realize That you were my prize I don't need another woman All shiny and new You're the only thing that I lack And it's a natural born fact Trying my best just to get back to you Please let me back in I won't stray Or let my foolish pride ever get in the way I'll be good and kind and faithful as a man can be You can trust me Just let me say this You're the only thing that I miss And I'm trying my best just to get back to you I'll take a bus and a train through the driving rain Just to get down on my knees for you And accept all the blame Give me one more chance at romance I beg and I plead It's all that I need A thousand miles I've roamed A hundred flights I've flown Trying my best just to get back to you
