v1
Big city girl from Ft. Worth, Texas
Getting her back was going to be complex.
Small town boy from the middle of Kansas
Trying to track her down what were the chances?
I became an internet detective
Facebook proved to be effective
Stalking the pictures in her profile
Found that smile I hadn’t seen in a while.
Chorus
400 miles—on a trail of tears
400 miles. For a couple of years
400 miles each way every week
400 miles long distance love ain’t for the meek
v2
First date in Ok. City, halfway between
Eyes met, lips locked, classic love scene
Crazy in love, this girl and this guy
Life would change in the blink of an eye
Blending families and changing careers
Had to overcome all of our fears
Zuckerberg deserved a standing ovation
And a Facebook wedding invitation.
Chorus
400 miles. We’d worn out a track.
400 miles. Just to get her back
400 miles. Couldn’t keep us apart
400 miles for the other half of my heart.
Ending
400 miles on a trail of tears
400 miles for a couple of years
400 miles couldn’t keep us apart
400 miles for the other half of my heart
