Intro

Verse 1

 I have stumbled on the plains

 Staggered in the wind

 Stood at a crossroad or two

 Cried to a river

 Swept to the sea

 All just to get to you

Verse 2

I have flagged a yellow cab

Hopped a rusty freight

Sang till my lips turned blue

Flown a silver bird

On the tops of the clouds

All just to get to you

Chorus

 I ran too hard,

 I played too Rough

 I gave my Love

 Not near Enough

 I bled too red

 I cried too blue

 I beat my fist

 Against the moon

 All just to get to you

Verse 3

I have run from St. Paul

To Wichita Falls

Call'd you from sunny Baton Rouge

Hocked everything

>From my watch to my ring

All just to get to you

Chorus

Break

Verse 4

>From the California Shore

Where the mighty ocean roars

To the lands of the Hopi and the Sioux

I walked the desert sands

Crossed the Rio Grande

All just to get to you

Verse 5

I have stumbled on the plains

Staggered in the wind

Stood at a crossroad or two

Cried to a river

Swept to the sea

All just to get to you
