are these thousands and thousands of miles
the only way that i get to speak to you
the pain of knowing that you're in some place that's far away
if your're here then i need you to stay
cause i can't face this lifetime alone
you're my soul, and my flash and my bones
take these miles away from me I sitting in the dark dark living room
we do the things that you do
you smile, touch my hand of???
