Fly Away Home - 10,000 Miles

Last time we watched this movie ( I mean before tonight ) it must have been some years ago.

It has been touching as usual. Maybe more.

And this song ... played some secret chord in me.

We're about to hit the road again.

We're about to change our life again.

We're about to fly away home, home, where the heart is.

Fare thee well
My own true love
Farewell for a while
I’m going away
But I’ll be back
Though I go 10,000 miles

10,000 miles
My own true love
10,000 miles or more
The rocks may melt
And the seas may burn
If I should not return

Oh don’t you see
That lonesome dove
Sitting on an ivy tree
She’s weeping for
Her own true love
As I shall weep for mine

Oh come ye back
My own true love
And stay a while with me
If I had a friend
All on this earth
You’ve been a friend to me

( Mary Chapin Carpenter )
