Million Miles
Skye Daru Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I've counted every bit of starlight
It's only half a world
From me to you
Thought it wouldn't be this hard
But this worth having always are!
It's only half a world
From me to you
Cuz you're the one I miss tonight
I'll see you from a million miles away
Show me your light
Make sure it's bright
Meet me above the world tonight
And I'll see you from a million miles away
Show me your light
Make sure it's bright
Baby it's you and me tonight
And I'll see you from a million miles away
Another morning by the phone
I'm tired of dancing on my own
I spent last night alone
I'm over it (I'm over it)
But every day that passes by me...
Is one less day til you're beside me
It's only half a world
From me to you
So light up all the city lights
Cuz you're the one I miss tonight
I'll see you from a million miles away
Show me your light
Make sure it's bright
Meet me above the world tonight
And I'll see you from a million miles away
Show me your light
Make sure it's bright
Baby it's you and me tonight
And I'll see you from a million miles away
I'll see you
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
A million miles away
Oh, oh, oh
From a million miles away
Oh, oh, oh
Oh...
I'll see you there...
A million miles away
Show me your light
Make sure it's bright
Meet me above the world tonight
And I'll see you from a million miles away
Show me your light
Make sure it's bright
Baby it's you and me tonight
And I'll see you from a million miles away
I'll see you there...
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh...
A million miles away
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh...
A million miles away
