The Black Lillies - The Distance Lyrics

Hey little darlin’ show your face to me
I’ll do your bidding, would you belong to me?
Would you belong to me?

I’m not your darling and yours I’ll never be
Once I loved truly, he’s dead now and I long to be
He’s dead now and I long to be

Hey little darlin’ I once loved true and rare
My love has flown I am alone, with you my love I would share
With you my love I would share

I’m not your darling and my love can’t be bought
There’s no man in this whole world who’ll ever know my heart
Who’ll ever know my heart

Hey little darlin’ as I ride away
Call to your love on high, for I’d only marry thee,
For I’d only marry thee

You’ll not call me darlin’ and you’ll not call me bride
My true love is waitin’ fare thee well now you must ride
Fare thee well now you must ride
