6000 miles behind I left you 6000 miles feels so alone 6000 miles I'd have to travel 6000 miles to get back home I'd have to sail oceans boundless I'd have to cross endless skies Some nights I do dream I can grow wings And I can fly that 6000 miles back home to you, mmm I traded you for some great adventure Stepped out into a world unknown To far away lands did I wander Whose deserts and mountains I now roam, whoa But I just can't let go of your golden shores And I still crave your salty air And if I was standing on the edge of Heaven or earth tonight I couldn't care about anything less than 6000 miles, mmm ♪ Oh, I've never really had much of a way with words But God knows I love to sing The feel of this sound coming through me The feel of the joy inside that it brings And so, yeah, tonight I'll be 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, mmm ♪ 6000 miles and get back home to you
