Miles Apart
AR Kane Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Just as long as we're together I will fall apart
in my heart we're miles apart
and it really doesn't matter what you say to me
Just as long as we're speaking (?)
And the sad sad song goes on and on
The sad sad song goes on and on
In my heart we're miles apart
And the sad sad song goes on and on
The sad sad song goes on and on and on...
just because we won't start over doesn't make it so
(?)
in my heart we're miles apart
And the sad sad song goes on and on
The sad sad song goes on and on
In my heart we're miles apart
And the sad sad song goes on and on
The sad sad song goes on and on and on
and it really doesn't matter if you're mad at me
And it really doesn't matter how you fall apart
And it really doesn't matter if you break my heart
