That Last Mile

[Verse 1]
Sometimes I look at you and my heart hurts
I guess when love's this strong, that's how it can be
When my time should come to leave this world
I hope the good Lord takes me in my sleep

[Pre-Chorus]
To have to say goodbye to you would be impossible for me

[Chorus]
If you should wonder how long I'll stand beside you
Well you know only til the stars forget to shine
Every step I take will be one we take together
Girl forever, 'til we've walked that last mile
'Til we've walked that last mile

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
Before I met you girl how could I have known
That I'd ever wanna give so much, so endlessly
When silver's in our hair and the years turn gold
Just turn to me and you will see

[Pre-Chorus]
Someone who with every beat of their heart still loves you faithfully

[Chorus]
If you should wonder how long I'll stand beside you
Well you know only til the stars forget to shine
Every step I take will be one we take together
Girl forever, 'til we've walked that last mile
'Til we've walked that last mile

[Tag]
Ooh, every step I take will be one we take together
Girl forever, 'til we've walked that last mile
'Til we've walked that last mile
