When I wake up, well I know I'm gonna be,
I'm gonna be the man who wakes up next to you
When I go out, yeah I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who goes along with you
When I get drunk, well I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who gets drunk next to you
And when I haver, hey I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who's havering to you
And I would walk 500 miles
And I would walk 500 more
Just to be the man who walked a thousand miles
To fall down at your door
When I'm working, well I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who's working hard for you
And when the money, comes in for the work I do
I'll pass almost every penny on to you
When I come home (When I come home), well I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who comes back home to you
And when I grow old, well I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who's growing old with you
But I would walk 500 miles
And I would walk 500 more
Just to be the man who walked a thousand miles
To fall down at your door
When I'm lonely, well I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who's lonely without you
And when I'm dreaming, well I know I'm gonna dream
I'm gonna dream about the time when I'm with you
When I go out (When I go out), well I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who goes along with you
And when I come home (When I come home), yeah I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who comes back home with you
I'm gonna be the man who's coming home with you
And I would walk 500 miles
And I would walk 500 more
Just to be the man who walked a thousand miles
To fall down at your door
And I would walk 500 miles
And I would walk 500 more
Just to be the man who walked a thousand miles
To fall down at your door

Asking for help: on 05/28/24, it will be my wife's And I 30th wedding anniversary. I have never been the best husband, but I have been one who loved her more. I have contacted the Proclaimers, contacted the Bethlehem Pennsylvania Pennsylvania Moravian Choir, to sing our first song, our first wedding dance song, I would walk 500 miles, so far no response. I so need this to happen, I so need this to come true. I so need for my wife of thirty years.....this is our and forever and will be this song. Sometimes old men, remember our love, our life, and our past. Please share, please encourage, please help my wife finally get the old man she married. Please let me give her this gift.

[@Littlewolf13]

Get “Miss Manners’ Guide to Domestic Tranquility” for yourself. It’s pretty eye-opening. How about a nice necklace? Rings get stuck on the finger after a few years/kids & I’ve had to use the Mortician’s way to remove w string. THAT does work if you ever need it. Something related to her interests-gardening, sewing, music etc. I feed the birds & love to watch them. My son got me a birdhouse w a camera inside so I can check out bird nest activity on my phone. I LOVE it! So look for something that interests her, & expand on it. Don’t forget a NICE card & write how you feel about your 30 year marriage. She’ll appreciate it. Good Luck!

[@peteroz7332]

did you accomplish that?

[@BattleCryMuted]

@@peteroz7332 , didn't quite have the Proclaimers there, but so much better. I had friends from long ago who are in two separate bands come together to play for my wife and I with songs of our past. My best friend really did all the work, got a lot of my old friends together for a wonderful/once in a lifetime event for my wife and me. And of course, I would walk 500 miles.....was the pinnacle of the party. My wife and I danced like we did the very first time......dreams do come true, but not necessarily the way you first envision them. I am eternally grateful to all the people that made that night...."our night."

The high harmony needs work. They aren't hitting it.

[@0King_Anon0]

Oh I'm about to sing a choir song let me put a mask on right so nobody can hear me sing... Covid really did just make idiots out of everybody.
