    Did you notice we never got details where he walked the second 500 miles? He may walked in one direction. Then he found out she lives next to him and walked the whole 500 miles back!

      His goal was “just to be the man who walked a thousand miles to fall down at your door” so it’s not impossible he just walked 2000 laps around the block she lives on.

          It’s like that scene from A Knights Tale.

          “What are you doing?”

          “L O S I N G.”

          “I don’t understand?!”

          “Oh, neither do I.”

      Also, the very next line in Hey There Delilah is “I’d walk to you if I had no other way.”

    To be fair, he did say he’d walk to her if he had no other way. However, since there are said planes, trains and cars, he’s just being efficient.

        I had the same problem with “Single Ladies” by Beyonce. Instead of “Ladies” I heard “Legs” So it was a song about people losing a leg because they got careless and didn’t show appreciation. So now they are on the look out for new ones.

        Once you hear it, it is hard to stop.

        All the single legs (All the single legs)

        All the single legs (All the single legs)

        All the single legs (All the single legs)

        All the single legs

        Now put your hands up

        I’m still disappointed about when I found out that one Soul Coughing song wasn’t about con men: “You get the angles, and I’ll get the rest”, but the lyrics were actually “you get the ankles, and I’ll get the wrists”

          I have a really hard time understanding the lyrics when I listen to songs (maybe because I’m autistic and have some auditory processing issues) so I’m often wildly wrong about them.

            I suspect they’ve also just heard the song in the background, and never really actively listened to it.

        Fun fact: all the imperial units are now fixed on the SI system. Meaning that their formal definitions use SI units. So it’s literally just SI with extra steps.
