I have walked a thousand miles
I have walked a thousand miles
I have worked as fast as I can
I have worked as fast as I can
And I have raised my precious child
And I have raised my precious child
To be a woman
To be a woman
I have walked up and down
I have walked up and down
I have wandered from place to place
I have wandered from place to place
And I have raised my weary hand
And I have raised my weary hand
To my face
To my face
But I would never
But I would never
Turn my back
Turn my back
On your love
On your love
Is there anybody there who knows me?
Is there anybody there who knows me?
Is there anybody there who knows me now?
Is there anybody there who knows me now?
That I will be home soon
That I will be home soon
But I would never
But I would never
Turn my back
Turn my back
On your love
On your love
When the sun is going down
When the sun is going down
There are colors against the sky
There are colors against the sky
And I have seen my hometown
And I have seen my hometown
In your eyes
In your eyes
But I would never
But I would never
Turn my back
Turn my back
Yeah, I'm learning
Yeah, I'm learning
To face the facts
To face the facts
Yeah, I'd never
Yeah, I'd never
Turn my back
Turn my back
On your love, oooh
On your love, oooh
Your love, your love
Your love, your love
Your love, your love
Your love, your love
No, I'd never
No, I'd never
Turn my back
Turn my back
On your love, your love
On your love, your love
Your love, your love
Your love, your love
