Trying To Get To You

                                  I've been traveling over mountains



Even through the valleys, too



I've been traveling night and day



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 traveling night and day



I've been running all the way



baby, trying to get to you





When I read your loving letter



Then my heart began to sing



There were many miles between us,



But they didn't mean a thing.





I just had to reach you, baby,



In spite of all that I've been through.



I kept traveling night and day,



I kept running all the way,



Baby, trying to get to you.





Well if I had to do it over



That's exactly what I'd do,



I would travel night and day,



And I'd still run 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





Lord above me knows I love you



It was He who brought me through,



When my way was dark as night,



He would shine His brightest light,



When I was trying to get to you.
