Get Here Lyrics

Artist: Oleta Adams

You can reach me by railway, you can reach me by trailway
You can reach me on an airplane, you can reach me with your mind
You can reach me by caravan, cross the desert like an Arab man
I don't care how you get here, just - get here if you can

You can reach me by sail boat, climb a tree and swing rope to rope
Take a sled and slide down the slope, into these arms of mine
You can jump on a speedy colt, cross the border in a blaze of hope
I don't care how you get here, just - get here if you can

There are hills and mountains between us
Always something to get over
If I had my way, surely you would be closer
I need you closer

(interlude, then repeat bridge)

You can windsurf into my life, take me up on a carpet ride
You can make it in a big balloon, but you better make it soon
You can reach me by caravan, cross the desert like an Arab man
I don't care how you get here, just - get here if you can

I don't care how you get here, just -- get here if - you can.

Iam in a long distance relationship and this song gets me through so i do not feel so alone and emotions just run. This song is wonderful in so many ways i can not explain but the song says it for me.
by Buddie on 1/17/2009 11:22am
Oh mine , I dont just know what to say on here but believe me the very first day i heard this song , i couldnt stop playing it over and all over again. But same time i always listen to this alone , Am just a lonely young man.
God bless you Oleta .

my mom used to sing this song to me when I was a kid. I absolutely love this song and helps me get through my long distance relationship
by Gayle on 2/13/2009 4:31pm
But, really 'you can windsurf into my life'? Is there a sillier lyric? Apart from the wicked voice I'd love this song for this reason alone.
by yuki on 3/5/2009 10:08pm

I would like to give my comment to SUE. "If your Mom used to sing this song for you when you were a kid, I think you are older than your Mom. How do you know that your Mom sang it for you? So, you heard the Song, right. It does mean that you are a DAMN OLD AGE..! DON'T TELL LIES..!
by eifren on 4/10/2009 11:36pm

I passed my singing audition with this song, always a favorite of mine! Love it!
by Jonny on 9/18/2009 12:51pm
I love this song SOOOOO freakin' much. And yeah to JACKIE CHAN, she can't be that old if her mom sang it to her - this song was an early 90's song and one of my gramma's favorites - i was a kid then and i'm only 24 now. that's not a damn old age. 80 is a damn old age.
by Mariana. on 10/9/2009 3:11am
I love this song it has a lot of meaning to my brother and I.
by Gemini on 11/13/2009 7:56pm

Oleta repeats "There are hills..."
after the interlude.
Followed by "I don't care, I don't care, I need you right here, right now". "I need you right here, right now, right by my side, ye---ah." "Get he---re, ooohhh". Then "I don't care how...".

You missed a verse
by Nina on 3/6/2013 8:40am
this song for the first time sent me as a "little gift" is my favorite. The beloved man with whom we have never met, it was a symbol of hope for our meeting. I often listened to and sang to himself. But now, when he disappeared from my life, I was very painful to hear the text.. I miss you, my Luigi

by HelenGD on 6/18/2013 2:15pm
