I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles)

Steven Curtis Chapman · All About Love [2002]

When I wake up yeah I know I'm gonna be

I'm gonna be the man who wakes up next to you

When I go out yeah I know I'm gonna be

I'm gonna be the man who goes along with you



When I'm lonely well I know I'm gonna be

I'm gonna be the man whose lonely without you

When I'm dreaming well I know I'm gonna dream

I'm gonna dream about the time when I'm with you



But I would walk 500 miles

And I would walk 500 more

Just to be the man who walked a thousand miles

To fall down at your door



When I'm working yes I know I'm gonna be

I'm gonna be the man who's working hard for you

And when the money comes in for the work I'll do

I'll pass almost every penny on to you

When I come home yeah I know I'm gonna be

I'm gonna be the man who comes back home to you

And if I grow old well I know I'm gonna be

I'm gonna be the man who's growing old with you



But I would walk 500 miles

And I would walk 500 more

Just to be the man who walked a thousand miles

To fall down at your door



When I'm dreaming well I know I'm gonna dream

Dream about the time when I'm with you

And when I wake up yeah I know I'm gonna be

I'm gonna be the man who wakes up next to you

And when I go out well I know I'm gonna be

I'm gonna be the man who goes along with you

When I come home yes I know I'm gonna be

I'm gonna be the man who comes back home to you

I'm gonna be the man who comes back home to you



But I would walk 500 miles

And I would walk 500 more

Just to be the man who walked a thousand miles

To fall down at your door
