A Thousand Miles Away

(v1)
At last you’ve gone and left me
I saw it coming on
Becoming more apparent
With the breaking of each dawn

(v2)
Can’t tell you how I miss you
Or how many tears I’ve cried
It’s so lonely here without you
Couldn’t even say goodbye


(Chorus)
I don’t know where you’ve gone off to
Thought we'd always have forever
But I know you’re never coming back
Not today, next week or ever
When I kneel and pray to God
I don’t know what to say
Though you’re just across the room
You’re a thousand miles away


(v3)
You didn’t mean to leave me
It wasn’t in your plans
And when I lean to kiss you
You don’t know who I am

(v4)
You don’t look any diff’rent
That’s what makes it oh so hard
Knowing I can’t reach you
Is tearing me apart

(Bridge)
Why does it have to be this way
So cruel and so unkind
To leave your body perfect
But take away your mind

(Chorus)
I don’t know where you’ve gone off to
Thought we'd always have forever
But I know you’re never coming back
Not today, next week or ever
When I kneel and pray to God
I don’t know what to say
Though you’re just across the room
You’re a thousand miles away

(Tag)
Yes I can touch you, I can hold you
But you’re a thousand miles away
