lyrics

Mile Long

Talk in time
She walks the line
Just don’t give it away
Secrets out
Unlock the keys of doubt
She sees the trees
A mile away

She said
“When I get home and the night is done
When I get home, I’ll tell you a story
Of honour and glory, I’ll sing you a song
Of my mile long”

So close
She almost choked
A girl’s naivete´
The lights were dim
As she ran towards him
An open heart calling


She said
“When I get home and the night is done
When I get home, I’ll tell you a story
Of honour and glory, I’ll sing you a song
Of my mile long”

The butterflies they come
Cocooned hearts drum
And I still break into a sweat
Like the first day we met.

She takes her time
Sips her wine
A lady now she’s come of age
Yet she can’t relax
Ti’ll she gets back
To his arms sleeping

And she said
“ When I get home and lay this aching down
When I get home, I’ll tell you a story
Of honour and glory, I’ll curl into your side
Thankful to be alive
