I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles)

(album: I Dream Of You, Vol. 3 - 2021)

When I wake up, yeah, I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the one who wakes up next to you
When I go out, yeah, I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the one who goes along with you
When I'm lonely, well, I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the one who's lonely without you
And when I'm dreaming, well, I know I'm gonna dream
I'm gonna dream about the time when I'm with you

But I would walk five hundred miles
And I would walk five hundred more
To be the one who walked a thousand miles
To fall down at your door

When I'm working, yes, I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the one who's working hard for you
And when the money comes in for the work I do
I'll pass almost every penny on to you
When I come home, oh, I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the one who comes back home to you
And if I grow old, well, I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the one who's growing old with you

But I would walk five hundred miles
And I would walk five hundred more
Just to be the man who walked a thousand miles
To fall down at your door

Ta-da-da-ta, ta-da-da-ta, ta-da-da-ta, ta-da-da-ta
Ta-da-da-dan-te-la-dan-te-la-dan-te-le-la-da-da
Ta-da-da-ta, ta-da-da-ta, ta-da-da-ta, ta-da-da-ta
Ta-da-da-dan-te-la-dan-te-la-dan-te-le-la-da-da

And when I'm dreaming, well, I know I'm gonna dream
I'm gonna dream about the time when I'm with you
When I wake up, yeah, I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the one who wakes up next to you
When I go out, well, I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the one who goes along with you
When I come home (when I come home), yes, I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the one who comes back home to you
I'm gonna be the one who's coming home to you

But I would walk five hundred miles
And I would walk five hundred more
To be the one who walked a thousand miles
To fall down at your door

Ta-da-da-ta, ta-da-da-ta, ta-da-da-ta, ta-da-da-ta
Ta-da-da-dan-te-la-dan-te-la-dan-te-le-la-da-da
Ta-da-da-ta, ta-da-da-ta, ta-da-da-ta, ta-da-da-ta
Ta-da-da-dan-te-la-dan-te-la-dan-te-le-la-da-da
Ta-da-da-ta, ta-da-da-ta, ta-da-da-ta, ta-da-da-ta
Ta-da-da-dan-te-la-dan-te-la-dan-te-le-la-da-da
Ta-da-da-ta, ta-da-da-ta, ta-da-da-ta, ta-da-da-ta
Ta-da-da-dan-te-la-dan-te-la-dan-te-le-la-da-da

When I'm dreaming, well, I know I'm gonna dream
I'm gonna dream about the time when I'm with you
When I come home (when I come home), yes, I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the one who comes back home to you
