Five Hundred Miles Lyrics - A World Without Love - Peter & Gordon

Tear drops fell on mama's note 

When I read the things she wrote 

She said, we miss you girl 

We love you come on home 

Well I didn't have to pack 

I had it all right on my back 

Now I'm five hundred miles away from home 

Away from home, away from home 

Cold and tired and all alone 

Yes, I'm five hundred miles away from home 

It's hard to tell the state I'm in 

Where I'm going, where I've been 

But there's a dream I've been following so long 

If mama knew the things I've done 

She'd forgive them everyone 

But I'm still five hundred miles away from home 

Away from home, away from home 

Cold and tired and all alone 

Yes, I'm five hundred miles away from home 

Can't remember when I ate 

it's just thumb and walk and wait 

And I'm still five hundred miles away from home 

If my luck had been just right 

I'd be with them all tonight 

But I'm still five hundred miles away from home 

Away from home, away from home 

Cold and tired and all alone 

Yes, I'm five hundred miles away from home 

Lord, I'm still five hundred miles away from home
