Miles

let the sun rise
as I awake with a smile on my face
with you by my side
as if to feel your embrace
but your smile’s so close
and my heart is so weak
just hearing your voice
I shake at the knees
 
from New York to California
the highways seem to stretch
and the oceans stand to glisten
as the miles never end
but I can feel your heart beat
and I know your hand’s in reach
so give me two more days
and I’ll be where you need
 
the way you make me laugh
is untouchable by all
and everything about you
will never let me fall
and though the forecast predicts
tomorrow’s clouds and rain
I will always keep you warm
if you promise to keep me sane
 
on this long dirt road
the sign says turn around
the street bombards with snow
but I refuse to be brought down
I will hold on
I’ll fight my way through
cause miles are just a number
I’ll find my way to you

(2009)
