miles between

Verse 1: The sun’s been setting on another long day, Swinging hammers just to keep the bills at bay. Every mile between us feels like an empty space, I’m counting down the hours ‘til I see her face. This highway stretches farther than my eyes can see, But all I want is to have her here with me. Chorus: She’s the reason I’m still standing under a distant sky, The hardest part of leaving is always saying goodbye. Every mile feels heavier when she’s not around, I’m working hard just to make it back to solid ground. And until I’m home, I’ll carry her in my dreams, She’s the only thing that gets me through these miles between. Verse 2: Nights are colder when she's not by my side, The stars don’t shine the same without her in my life. I picture her back home, waiting patiently, While I’m stuck out here, fighting just to be free. Each day drags longer, but I’ll push on through the pain, ‘Cause I know every step is leading me home again. Chorus: She’s the reason I’m still standing under a distant sky, The hardest part of leaving is always saying goodbye. Every mile feels heavier when she’s not around, I’m working hard just to make it back to solid ground. And until I’m home, I’ll carry her in my dreams, She’s the only thing that gets me through these miles between. Bridge: I’ve seen the sun rise on a thousand empty days, But none of them feel right when I’m so far away. I’ll keep fighting through, no matter how long it takes, ‘Cause every road I walk is leading me back to her embrace. Chorus: She’s the reason I’m still standing under a distant sky, The hardest part of leaving is always saying goodbye. Every mile feels heavier when she’s not around, I’m working hard just to make it back to solid ground. And until I’m home, I’ll carry her in my dreams, She’s the only thing that gets me through these miles between.
