500 Miles

Bye Bye Bicycle

Two hundred nights in a cage like this

I spend too many nights with no light in them

Five hundred miles with no shoes at all

I walked so many miles still I can't reach you

I reached a point where no compass spies

We always knew they were idle lies

You found a bag full of gold that day

Did you throw it away

Or did you pay to stay

I built a boat and sailed the seven seas alone

Just to drown on my own in the ocean wide

I crossed the bridge just to burn it down again

You climbed the mountain did you find me then

How many times must I fall

Before I fall in love for sure

How many wonders must I recall

Before you fall in love for sure

Two hundred times have I told you so

Five hundred until you stay for sure

Two hundred nights did I force you no

Five hundred more until you leave me for sure

I built a boat and sailed the seven seas alone

Just to drown on my own in the oceaqn wide

I crossed the bridge just to burn it down again

You climbed the mountain did you find me then

How many times must I fall

Before I fall in love for sure

How many wonders must I recall

Before you fall in love for sure
