If I had wings, I'd fly the mountains
If I had a boat, I'd sail the sea
The dreary miles are long and lonesome
That lie between my love and me
Chorus:
True love and time go on forever
But love and distance cannot agree
When true love calls, a man will find it
Just like a river will find the sea
My true love lives in a quiet valley
Where sweet, warm winds, they always blow
I left her there to seek my fortune
Though why I left her, I'll never know
Chorus
Come rain or shine, I'll start tomorrow
To where my heart can find some rest
And I won't mind the long hard journey
I'll find the one that I love best
Chorus
