A Thousand Miles Away

A thousand miles away, I could still feel the beat;

Of your heart, in my heart, as if you were standing in front of my feet.

And I cling to that feeling, ‘cuz it’s the only thing keeping me sane;

But the torture I feel when you’re not here, babe it’s inhumane.

That’s why I never, ever want you to leave;

And I know I love you babe, but I wanna make you believe;

So please, receive, my love, but do not greave.

I’ll still be thinking of you, day in and night out;

And in my sleep, I’ll always be dreaming about;

Holding you close, ‘cuz you always be smelling, as sweet as a rose;

And kissing away, all your problems, worries and woes.

So even though you are, a thousand miles away;

I’m never letting go, ‘cuz I can’t, and I won’t, there’s just no way.
