When I wake up well I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who wakes up next to you
When I go out yeah I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who goes along with you

When I'm working yes I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who's working hard for you
And when the money comes in for the work I do
I'll pass every single penny on to you

But I would walk 500 miles
And I would walk 500 more
Just to be the man
Who walks a thousand miles
To fall down at your door

When I'm lonely well I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who's lonely without you
And when I'm dreaming well I know I'm gonna dream
I'm gonna dream about the time when I'm with you

But I would walk 500 miles
And I would walk 500 more
Just to be the man
Who walks a thousand miles
To fall down at your door

When I come home oh I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who's coming home to you
And when I grow old well I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who's growing old with you
I'm gonna be the man who's growing old with you

But I would walk 500 miles
And I would walk 500 more
Just to be the man
Who walks a thousand miles
To fall down at your door
