lyrics

10,000 miles, I've walked 10,000 miles
There's a chance I'll walk a 1,000 miles
10,000 days, I'm torn 10,000 ways
Had my brother to my right
He didn't make it through the night
He didn't make it home

10,000 boys, I've seen 10,000 more
Cross the sea to someone else's shore
What was it for
Fighting for country and kin in the war
With busted head and broken bone
Uncle Sam just shipped me on
With no place to call home

But I've been down on my knees
Praying for a similar place, a familiar face
And if this life sets me free to see that face again
Would you notice me at all
Would you notice me at all

10,000 miles, I've walked 10,000 miles
There's a chance I'll walk a 1,000 miles
10,000 days, I'm torn 10,000 ways
Hush now baby don't you cry
It's enough to see you smile
Just to see you smile

Cause I've been down on my knees
Praying for a similar place, a familiar face
And if this life sets me free to see that face again
Would you notice me at all
Would you notice me at all
