10000 Miles
Dariann Leigh Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Like the waves in the ocean
Are bound to the sea
Crashing over and over into me
Two drops in the ocean, our love is key
Oh if you ever wonder where I'll be
From sea to shining sea
I know you're out there fighting
I'm trying to be strong
Gotta keep on movin'
Step after step till I'm in your arms
10, 000 Miles never felt so far
My love is wherever you are
The nights are so long
Yeah I feel so alone
Reaching out for you
Forgetting you're gone
From dusk til dawn
No matter how much time goes on
From sea to shining sea
I know you're out there fighting
I'm trying to be strong
Gotta keep on movin'
Step after step till I'm in your arms
10, 000 Miles never felt so far
My love is wherever you are
I'm watching the sunset, thinkin' 'bout you
Are you out there lookin' to the ocean blue?
I promise I'll always be waiting for you
From sea to shining sea
I know you're out there fighting
I'm trying to be strong
Gotta keep on movin'
Step after step till I'm in your arms
10, 000 Miles never felt so far




My love is wherever you are
My love is wherever you are
