Ten Thousand Miles Lyrics & Chords By Brian Peters

Farewell to you, my own true love
Farewell for a while
I must go away, but I'll return
If I go ten thousand miles, my love
If I go ten thousand miles

Ten thousand miles is a long, long way
That from you I must go
Where there's many is the dark and the dismal night
And the stormy winds do blow, my love
And the stormy winds do blow

But if I should go ten thousand miles
To Scotland, France, and Spain
My heart would never be at rest
Till I saw your face again, my love
Till I saw your face again

Your red-rose cheeks and smiling face
Turned to the wind and the rain
Give me one kiss from your sweet, sweet lips
Where you've had scores of mine, my love
Where you've had scores of mine

The stars will fall down from the sky
The raging seas will burn
Before that I will prove false to you
So wait for my return, my love
So wait for my return

For I am like the turtledove
That flies from tree to tree
And as he waits there for his mate
So I will wait for thee, my love
So I will wait for thee
