[Verse 1]
~#**************#~
Ive been travelling over mountains
~#**************#~
Even through the valleys too
~#**************#~
Ive been travelling night and day
~#**************#~
Ive been running all the way
~#**************#~
Baby, trying to get to you
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
Ever since I read your letter
~#**************#~
Where you said you loved me true
~#**************#~
Ive been travelling night and day
~#**************#~
Ive been running all the way
~#**************#~
Baby, trying to get to you
~#**************#~
[Bridge 1]
~#**************#~
When I read your loving letter
~#**************#~
Then my heart began to sing
~#**************#~
There were many miles between us
~#**************#~
But they didnt mean a thing
~#**************#~
[Verse 3]
~#**************#~
I just had to reach you, baby
~#**************#~
In spite of all that Ive been through
~#**************#~
I kept travelling night and day
~#**************#~
I kept running all the way
~#**************#~
Baby, trying to get to you
~#**************#~
[Interlude]
~#**************#~
[Verse 4]
~#**************#~
Well, if I had to do it over
~#**************#~
Thats exactly what Id do
~#**************#~
I would travel night and day
~#**************#~
And Id still run all the way
~#**************#~
Baby, trying to get to you
~#**************#~
[Bridge 2]
~#**************#~
Well, theres nothing that could hold me
~#**************#~
Or could keep me away from you
~#**************#~
When your loving letter told me
~#**************#~
That you really loved me true
~#**************#~
[Verse 5]
~#**************#~
Lord above me knows I love you
~#**************#~
It was He who brought me through
~#**************#~
When my way was dark as night
~#**************#~
He would shine His brightest light
~#**************#~
When I was trying to get to you
