700 Miles from 700 Miles by Mary Lee's Corvette

700 Miles (Music & Lyrics by Mary Lee Kortes)

It’s 700 miles from my love to me, 700 miles
Across the mountains, across the sea, 700 miles
The sun is hot and the night gets cold
She loves me young though she’s growing old
I looked for silver and I found gold, 700 miles

I got a long, long way to go, 700 miles
My destiny still escapes me so, 700 miles
I’m turning left and I’m falling right
I dance so hard till I lose my sight
But still see you in the starlit night, 700 miles

I kept the gold that you gave to me, 700 miles
I keep it safe where the eye can’t see, 700 miles
I miss you more than I thought I would
My heart won’t cry though it knows it should
I’d bring you back if I only could, 700 miles

It’s 700 miles from my love to me, 700 miles
It might as well be eternity, 700 miles
Heaven’s calling to you daily
You’ll slip away but you’ll always be
Close enough to believe in me, 700 miles
Close enough to believe in me
700 miles
Close enough I can almost see
700 miles
