| There is a place down in tenessee i call home
|
| There is someone down there i call my own
|
| At least i think he is
|
| Lord i pray he is
|
| Least i could do is give him a call
|
| Our love across the miles is holding strong
|
| With every sign of going on and on
|
| Least i hope it will
|
| Lord i pray it will
|
| But there is a danger still
|
| Cuz we know
|
| That time and distance
|
| Will do their level best
|
| To build a wall between us
|
| And put love to the test
|
| The doubt and temptation
|
| Step in and take control
|
| Calling on suspicion
|
| To come and take its toll
|
| We can’t lead love
|
| Down the path of least resistance
|
| We’ve got to hold our own
|
| Against time and distance
|
| They say out of sight out of mind
|
| But i say love like ours can hold the line
|
| Im here to say they’re wrong
|
| I hope and pray they’re wrong
|
| And we can keep love strong
|
| Cuz we know
|
| That time and distance
|
| Will do their level best
|
| To build a wall between us
|
| And put love to the test
|
| The doubt and temptation step in and take control
|
| Calling on suspicion
|
| To come and take its toll
|
| We can’t lead love down the path of least resistance
|
| We’ve got to hold our own agains time and distance
|
| We’ve got to hold our own
|
| Against time and distance |
