Against a blue sky a black shadow flies by
I guess he's got some place to go
Some mission's calling no high ground can slow him
The miles flash by down below
You know you can always count on me I'm like the river to the sea
As sure as day follows night
But I won't run a crooked mile and I won't wait for morning light
I'll come straight as the crow flies
Each night the north star reminds me I'm so far away
From the one light that's true
But my love's a strong tie that binds you to my life
And will go the distance for you
You know you can always count on me...
If there's ever anything you need
You only have to whisper in your dreams
[ guitar ]
You know you could always count on me...
