Not far, not far from here You'll say, "You're safe, my dear" Where mountains run into shores Love song, goes on so pure Not far, not far from here I'll wait for you, my dear And we'll dance, who cares what we dance for? Love song, just ours, mine and yours Boulevards and avenues Make our way to someplace new By riverboat on the bayou On my way to rescue you By boulevards or avenues We'll make our way to someplace new On my way to rescue you Not far, not far from here I'll wait for you, my dear
