500 Miles,500 Miles,
I have come 500 Miles!
My taxi is lost, my luggage is gone,
But I am on my way! !

I am almost there,
Getting very near,
And dying with suspense - -
Oh, what will he say?

Will he welcome me with open arms,
With a kiss, and a loving smile?
Or will there be anger in his eyes
As he sends me on my way?

Will he tell me he waited forever,
And greet me as an eager lover,
Or will it all end, here and now?
Oh, what will he say?
