I'm a million miles away
In dreams that haunt me
Even when I'm awake
I look at your pictures everyday
I can't seem forget your face
My heart is lost and in disarray
Is that you on the crowded avenue?
I look for you everywhere I go
How come it's never really you?
It's so difficult to live again
In a world that you're no longer in
But I still believe in miracles
Someday the world will end
I'm still learning to smile again
But not ready for love to begin
I wanted to believe in a miracle
I'm waiting for the world to end
I don't want you to fade away
I know you didn't want to leave
You fought so very hard to stay
If I could just stop dreaming
I could carry on without you
Your name I can't stop screaming
I barely manage to push through
But I can never stop loving you
And I honestly don't ever want to
I'm learning to love again
But it's hidden deep within
I still believe life is beautiful
Until this cruel world ends
I'm learning to smile again
I know you would want me to
I'm still waiting for life to begin
I know you don't want me lonely
But I will never stop loving you
You were always my one and only
I'm learning to live again
It's still hard to comprehend
I'll always believe in miracles
Until the world ends
Maybe we'll reunite in another life
I know we'll someday meet again
Perhaps it'll be when my life is over
I'll have to wait until the world ends
