500 Miles Lyrics - Singles - Kathryn Cloward

I woke up at 4am 

Knowing what I needed to do 

I had to find out if there was still hope 

Or if we were through 

Headed north bound to San Francisco 

As the sun rose from the east 

Carried on wheels of hope 

Seeking love and peace 

But as the miles stretched on for hours 

It became clear to me 

That sometimes being courageous 

Borders on being crazy 

I drove 500 miles 

On a pilgrimage of hope 

Hoping to salvage what was left of us 

Before coming back home 

But I never got to see you 

Or hear your voice again 

And I had to accept that sometimes things 

Just come to an end 

I drove 500 miles 

On a pilgrimage of hope 

'Cuz I realize that love can only grow 

Where energy flows 

But the messages in the miles 

Helped me know 

That sometimes the only place to drive 

Is straight back home 

You silence said everything 

And you wouldn't give me time 

I risked it all for love 

Even though it broke this heart of mine 

I gathered up all my strength 

And put the tissues away 

Then I turned my car around 

And drove home the very next day 

As the miles stretched on for hours 

I let my angels lead the way 

'Cuz sometimes the only way to heal 

Is to surrender and pray 

I drove 500 miles 

On a pilgrimage of hope 

Hoping to salvage what was left of us 

Before coming back home 

But I never got to see you 

Or hear your voice again 

And I had to accept that sometimes things 

Just come to an end 

I drove 500 miles 

On a pilgrimage of hope 

'Cuz I realize that love can only grow 

Where energy flows 

But the messages in the miles 

Helped me know 

That sometimes the only place to drive 

Is straight back home 

I drove 500 miles on a pilgrimage of hope
