Jeoffrey was already involved in the Christian music business since the 70s when his son expressed interest in following in his footsteps; their eponymous debut album was released in 1995. Their goal was to show a positive model of the father/son relationship. After their last album release in 1999, the duo disbanded to follow individual careers: Jeoffrey released a self-titled album in 2000 and Aaron is currently a member of the band Dirt Road Hotel.
Across The Miles
Aaron Jeoffrey Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
On the memories we've made
A friendship born in heaven
Will last though all our days
A part of me goes with you
Even if you journey far
You'll never be forgotten
Across the miles, please remember
When I can't be there
I will send my heart to you
Upon the wings of prayer
Across the miles, may God keep you
Through the tears and smiles
For His love will reach across the miles
May your life be a blessing
May all your dreams come true
May the Lord be with you
In everything you do
In all of your tomorrows
Wherever life may lead
This bond will go unbroken
When you know someone believes
Across the miles, please remember
When I can't be there
I will send my heart to you
Upon the wings of prayer
Across the miles, may God keep you
Through the tears and smiles
For His love will reach across the miles
His love will reach across the miles
