I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles)

(album: Mockingbird - 2013)

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

If I get drunk, well, you know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the one who gets drunk next to you
And if I haver, hey, I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the one who's havering to you

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

When I'm working, yeah you 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 (when I come home), yeah, I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the one who's coming home to you
If I grow old, yeah, 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 one who walked a thousand miles
To fall down at your door

When I'm lonely, (when I'm lonely) yeah, I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the one who's lonely without you
And when I'm dreaming (oh I'm dreaming), yea, 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
Just to be the man who walked a thousand miles
To fall down at your door
