A Thousand Miles
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Makin' my way downtown, walkin' fast
Faces pass and I'm homebound
Starin' blankly ahead, just makin' my way
Makin' a way through the crowd
And I need you
And I miss you
And now I wonder
If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass me by?
'Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles
If I could just see you
Tonight
It's always times like these when I think of you
And I wonder if you ever think of me
'Cause everything's so wrong and I don't belong
Livin' in your precious memory
'Cause I'll need you
And I'll miss you
And now I wonder
If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass me by?
Oh, 'cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles
If I could just see you
Tonight
And I, I don't wanna let you know
I, I drown in your memory
I, I don't wanna let this go
I, I don't
Makin' my way downtown, walkin' fast
Faces pass and I'm homebound
Starin' blankly ahead, just makin' my way
Makin' a way through the crowd
And I still need you
I still miss you
And now I wonder
If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass us by?
'Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles
If I could just see you, oh, oh
If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass me by?
'Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles
If I could just see you
If I could just hold you
Tonight
