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 wewe alisema wewe 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 moyo 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
au that could keep me away from you
When your loving letter told me
That wewe really loved me true

Lord above me knows I upendo you
It was He who brought me through,
When my way was darkest night,
He would shine His brightest light,
When I was trying to get to you
