I've been travelling over mountains,
even through the valleys, too.
I've been travelling in vain,
I've been running all the way, baby, trying to get to you.
Ever since I read your letter,
where you said you loved me, true.
I've been travelling night and day,
I've been running all the way, baby, trying to get to you.
When I read your lovin' letters
when my heart began to sing.
there were many miles between us,
but they didn't mean a thing.
I just got to reach you baby
in spite of all that I've been through
I've been travelling night and day
I've been running all the way, baby, trying to get to you.
Well, there's nothing that could hold me.
Or that could keep me away from you.
When your loving letter told me,
that you really loved me, true.
God above me knows I love you.
It was He who brought me too.
When my way was darkest night,
He would shine His brightest light,
I was trying to get to you.
When my way was darkest night,
He would shine His brightest light,
I was trying to get to you.
