6000 miles
It’s a long way to fly
Soaring so high
6000 miles
It was a long jump then
Knowing when
The Atlantic tore us apart
Me and my new start
The three of you stayed
Don’t see you often I’m afraid
Texas seems so far
Cannot get there in my car
Trans Atlantic
Getting frantic
So close and yet so far
The grand ta ta
6000 miles
Endless smiles
Written in ink
Not in the pink
But never mind
In my heart there is no distance at all
No miles to travel
No short inconvenient phone call
No technology to baffle
See you there
See you soon
See you on the dark side of the Moon.
