It’s been said a million times Been thrown into a hundred rhymes Still no one accepts the trend No one wants to believe That every good thing comes to an end Walking away I tried to pretend Make myself believe that this was a not conclusion Miles away trying to think of the distance as illusion But every inch I stray my heart feels de division
Leaving I’m going a thousand miles away With every mile comes a new reason to stay Wondering if it was worth parting with yesterday I only wish there was another way Because I’m a thousand reasons from you today
The nights spent dreaming The days spent wondering What could have been? Some choices you just can’t win Left the questions itching beneath the skin And the memories spinning from within
Even in this new world so small When miles can disappear in a phone call With all the connections I still feel a wall On the other side who will catch you if you fall I wish my arms could reach around to you Cause I’m hurting and I know you are to
Leaving I’m going a thousand miles away With every mile comes a new reason to stay Wondering if it was worth parting with yesterday I only wish there was another way Because I’m a thousand reasons from you today
So far away can’t help but ponder If I’m not around will you remember? As time goes by it seems I drift further Emptiness has taken the place of all the little wonders Insecurities are creeping in closer Your words have lost there weight It doesn’t seem hard to believe that you couldn’t wait Trust falls into thoughts of betrayal Already excepting what I knew to fail
Pleading for trust to return A faith over distance will burn With separation betrayal is all I learn Left behind your left to yearn Far away you don’t want to lose The past isn’t a path to chose Miles have stolen your man All because of a choice you don’t understand Loneliness isn’t helping you stand Stretched to our limit, have we seen our last grain of sand?
Living, I’m parting with the past Every minute comes a new reason to make it last But there’s no way to turn back I only wish I could live with that fact Because we’re a thousand reasons apart today
