Not far, not far from here
You'll say, "You're safe, my dear"
Where mountains run into shores
Love song, goes on so pure

Not far, not far from here
I'll wait for you, my dear
And we'll dance, who cares what we dance for?
Love song, just ours, mine and yours

Boulevards and avenues
Make our way to someplace new
By riverboat on the bayou
On my way to rescue you
By boulevards or avenues
We'll make our way to someplace new
On my way to rescue you

Not far, not far from here
I'll wait for you, my dear
