lyrics

"40 Miles"
Words and music by Benjamin & Chelsea Peck (BMI)

It’s been about 14 miles since I last turned around
It’s been equally long since anyone’s heard the sound
Of my voice
And my one and only choice
Was to run away and be free

It’s been about 18 miles since I last turned around
It’ll be any minute now that she will have found
My note
And my one and only hope
Is that the one whom I love would follow me

Follow me (follow me), follow me (follow me)
I can’t seem to turn my heart of stone
Now I’m free from what you say
‘Cause I’m goin’ my own way
But freedom ain’t so free when you’re alone

It’s been about 20 miles since I last saw her face
It’s been much, much longer that I last thought of grace
But just know
That the further on I go
I learn a little more what it’s like to be free

It’s been about 30 miles since I found this road
And I can’t turn around now ‘cause I’m stubborn as stone
But I’m scared
And my one and only prayer
Is that the one whom I love would follow me

Follow me (follow me), follow me (follow me)
I can’t seem to turn my heart of stone
Now I’m free from what you say
‘Cause I’m goin’ my own way
But freedom ain’t so free when you’re alone

Follow me (follow me), follow me (follow me)
I can’t seem to turn my heart of stone
Now I’m free from what you say
‘Cause I’m goin’ my own way
But freedom ain’t so free when you’re alone

Now I’m free from what you say
‘Cause I’m goin’ my own way
But freedom ain’t so free when you’re alone

It’s been about 40 miles since I last turned around
It’s been equally long since anyone could hear the sound
When my heart breaks
But with every step I take
I learn a little more just where I belong
I wish the one whom I love had come along
I thought that this would set me free, but I was wrong
