A Country Mile Lyrics


I'm getting too used to this way of life
Fame is a baby, she rocks me at night
Far from the cold and the brash city lights
We purchase from sorrow a moment's respiteAnd each time you smile
I know I would follow you a country mile
For all that I'm chasing is worthless and vileI was a backwater girl, home most nights
That was before I saw my name in lights
Stardom and squalor were not dreams of mine
But I've seen the Hollywood sign now and oh how it shinesBut when you smile
I swear I would follow you a country mile
Please save me before I do things that aren't worth my while

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Ben met Tracey when they were at Hull University and she was singing in pop girl-band Marine Girls. Ben contributed a photograph, for a forthcoming album cover, after which, the pair became partners (later getting married).
