"Country Mile" lyrics

"Country Mile"

I, oh I believe you
I, oh I
I, oh I beseech you
Walk with me
Along this country mile

The destination is never certain
But for the fact our hearts are hurting
The trees are weeping
The moon's not sleeping
Nothing we carry that's worth keeping

There's not much light on
Our si—our si—our side of the road
So we walk as if our eyes are closed
Walk as if our eyes are closed

I, oh I believe you
I, oh I
I, oh I beseech you
Walk with me
Along this country mile

Is it the wide or narrow
The big or little things
That keep you company
As the summer sings?

No use complaining
The key was under the mat
And if it's raining
You should've thought of that
Of course you should've thought of that

I, oh I believe you
I, oh I
I, oh I beseech you
Walk with me
Along this country mile

I, I, I, I believe you
When you say I
I'm gonna get there
But not unless you help me
Surrender what is lost and found
With silence in the place of sound
To free you when you run aground
Open up your darkest forest
Believe me when I can't be honest
Breaking all the ice when I go numb
Help you make me hold on so long 'til my race is run

I, oh I believe you
I, oh I
I, oh I beseech you
Walk with me
Along this country mile
