Country Mile

I oh I believe you

I oh I

I oh I beseech you

Walk with me along this country mile

The destination is never certain

But for the fact our hearts are hurting

The trees are weeping

The moon's not sleeping

Nothing we carry that's worth the keeping

There's not much light on our si– our si–

Our side of the road

So we walk as if our eyes are closed

Walking as if our eyes are closed

I oh I believe you

I oh I

I oh I beseech you

Walk with me along this country mile

Is it the wide or narrow

The big or little things

That keep you company

As the summer sings?

No use complaining

The key was under the mat

And if it's raining, you should've thought of that

Of course you should have thought of that

I oh I believe you

I oh I

I oh I beseech you

Walk with me along this country mile

I, I, I, I believe you when you say

I am gonna get there

But not unless you help me surrender what is lost and found

With silence in the place of sound

To free you when you run aground

Open up your darkest forest

Believe me when I can't be honest

Breaking all the ice when I go numb

Help you make me hold on so long till my race is run

I oh I believe you

I oh I

I oh I beseech you

Walk with me along this country mile
