A Hundred Million Miles (Live Acoustic at The Abbey)

from Hymns At The Abbey by The Ragged Flags

lyrics

So long now we've walked this road
We were not wise, we weren't to know
That no one else would sell their soul
There's a hundred million miles to go
There's a hundred million miles to go

Marching forth on that white line
The broken strokes that mark the time
And I could not put down my load
There's a hundred million miles to go
There's a hundred million miles to go

An ancient man by that roadside
He shakes his fist at burning skies
He sang with eyes as black as coal
"There's a hundred million miles to go
There's a hundred million miles to go"

There's a hundred million miles
And miles
And miles
And miles, oh I

He spoke to me that awful truth
Said "Mark this well, for I am you
I passed my love upon this road
Was a hundred million miles ago
Was a hundred million miles ago

On and on no backward glance
Around the bend another chance
We circumnavigate the globe
There's a hundred million miles to go
There's a hundred million miles to go

There's a hundred million miles
And miles
And miles
And miles, oh I
