If I had wings, I'd fly the mountains If I had a boat, I'd sail the sea The dreary miles are long and lonesome That lie between my love and me [Chorus] True love and time go on forever But love and distance cannot agree When true love calls, a man will find it Just like a river will find the sea My true love lives in a quiet valley Where sweet, warm winds, they always blow I left her there to seek my fortune Though why I left her, I'll never know [Chorus] Come rain or shine, I'll start tomorrow To where my heart can find some rest And I won't mind the long hard journey I'll find the one that I love best [Chorus]
