It hurts to walk this gravel road
|
It's hard to find and overgorwn
|
You will see how much I'm worth
|
When you get past the rocks and dirt
|
|
C'mon, walk with me
|
I'm the extra mile
|
|
When you do, you're gonna fall
|
And wonder why you walked at all
|
Young and weary, you'll wanna stop
|
'Cause every hill takes all you got
|
|
C'mon, walk with me
|
Oh, I'm the extra mile
|
|
And that smile you give a stranger
|
When you'd rather turn your head
|
And that book you read to your children
|
When you'd rather be in bed
|
I'm forgiveness that you give
|
When you don't think you can
|
Forgive somebody one more time
|
|
At the end, there's no parade
|
Just you and me to celebrate
|
How far you've come by choosin' me
|
How you ignore those tired feet
|
|
C'mon, walk with me
|
Oh, I'm the extra mile
|
|
I'm that sacrifice you make
|
For someone you don't know
|
I'm that teardrop for a soldier
|
You've read about at home
|
I'm that love you give somebody
|
Who doesn't give it back
|
|
C'mon, walk with me awhile
|
Oh, I'm the extra mile
|
|
Oh, I'm the extra mile
|
|
Yeah
|
|
Being more than what you see
|
Takes all of you and one of me
|
|
C'mon, walk with me
|
I'm the extra mile
|
|
I'm the extra mile
|
|
Oh, I'm the extra mile
|
Oh, I'm the extra mile
|
Baby, I'm the extra mile
|
Yeah
