Get Here
by Oleta Adams, 1990
"Get Here" became the unofficial anthem for the Gulf War (Desert Storm) in 1991. The lyrics express the longing for a loved one who's many miles away, and the different methods of transportation he can use to return. The song was sung to US troops in the Middle East whose loved ones were home in America, awaiting their return (RRL)
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 a way, surely you would be closer

I need you closer


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, I don't care

I need you right here right now

I need you right here right now right by my side
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!


Get here!

I don't care how you get here, just

Get here if you can
