Winger, "Miles Away", from In the Heart of the Young, by Paul Taylor
------ -------------------------

"So this is love, or so you tell me
As you're walkin', out the door
Months go by, and I know for certain
It's not the love, I'm lookin' for"
"Some times, just for a moment,
I reach out; hope you're still there"

"Miles away,
No; you're never turnin' back,
I just can't wait anymore
Miles away,
Nothin' left of what we had,
Just when I needed you most...
You were miles away... "

"It's hard to tell, what you're goin' through
You kept your feelings locked inside of you
Open your heart, and chances are,
What you're feelin', I'm feelin' too"

"If only, just for a moment,
Hold on, to the dreams that we had"

"Miles away,
No; you're never turnin' back,
I just can't wait anymore
Miles away,
Nothin' left of what we had,
Just when I needed you most
You were miles away"

"When times were tough, and you were down and out
Who was there by your side?
Now you've gone; I'm so tired of bein' alone..
With only youromises... "

"Lonliness just fades away,
Thoughts of you; just memories
No cryin' now, for what we're missin'
Time won't forget what you meant to me"

"Hold me, just for a moment
Hold on, to the dreams that we had"

"Miles away,
No; you're never turnin' back,
I just can't wait anymore
Miles away,
Nothin' left of what we had,
Just when I needed you most, whoa-oh,
Miles away,
No; you're never turnin' back,
I just can't wait anymore,
Miles away,
Nothin' left of what we had,
Just when I needed you most... "





"You were mi-les a-way..."

You're distant and there's no hope of you coming back; I cannot wait anymore. Nothing remains of what we had. Exactly at my lowest point, you were absent


It's hard to tell, what you're goin' through You kept your feelings locked inside of you Open your heart, and chances are, What you're feelin', I'm feelin' too
I find it difficult to know how you feel because you keep it within. If you open up, you'll find that what you're going through, I'm going through too


If only, just for a moment, Hold on, to the dreams that we had
Even if it's just a moment, hold onto the dreams we shared


When times were tough, and you were down and out Who was there by your side? Now you've gone; I'm so tired of bein' alone.. With only youromises...
When things were difficult and you were struggling, who was there for you? Now that you're gone, I'm weary of being lonely with just your empty assurances


Lonliness just fades away, Thoughts of you; just memories No cryin' now, for what we're missin' Time won't forget what you meant to me
Solitude eventually fades away, and thoughts of you become only memories. No more tears shed for what we lost, because time will always remember the significance you held for me

Embrace me, even if it's just for a bit; don't let go of the dreams we had together

You're far away, and I know you won't be coming back. I can no longer wait. Everything between us is gone. Just when I was in greatest need, you were missing


You were mi-les a-way...
You were miles away...
