The GraveYard Shift

How Far To The Horizon?

How far to the horizon
I'm in a rush you see
We were to meet by the western sky
My love must be waiting on me

It don't look all that far, no?
No more than thirty miles
But I set out thirty years ago
Been walking all that while

Look yonder, look yonder, look over there
Ain't that a sight to see
Just a few more miles to the horizon
Oh, Lord, don't give up on me

I know it's pretty country
It borders on the sky
It's nothing but my faith that says
I'll be there by and by

Look yonder, look yonder, look over there
Ain't that a sight to see
Just a few more miles to the blue horizon
Oh, Lord, don't give up on me

How far to the horizon
I'm in a rush you see
We were to meet by the western sky
My love must be waiting on me

Look yonder, look yonder, look over there
Ain't that a sight to see
Just a few more miles to the blue horizon
Oh, Lord, don't give up on me
Oh, Lord, don't give up on me
Oh, Lord, don't give up on me


Learn To Love It
