Tom Verlaine
Five Miles of You
Deep is the longing that I feel
It's like a light that goes right through
This darkness I've been working in
Trying to do so much for you
To feel you close to me this way
Much closer than the air I breathe
I come to recognise my fate
As something you've already seen
(Walk)
I've been walking till it ain't true
I've been walking five miles of you
It's a kind of paradise, your smile
But why I haven't got a clue
It's something I would like to solve
The mystery of the pleasure of you
(Walk)
I've been walking till it ain't true
I've been walking five miles of you
Five miles of you
Walking out in the wind and light
Before me I see only you
Walking out in the wind and light
Into the mystery of you
I've been walking till it ain't true
I've been walking five miles of you
I've been walking till it ain't true
I've been walking five miles of you
I've been walking till it ain't true
I've been walking five miles of you
(Walk)
