The Miles That Make a Road

How many times will the bell ring

Before we learn that time is out

Then only the heart makes a difference

When everything looks so senseless

But there’s a glow in the embers

When ashes seem to be what’s left

We just need a breath

To make it a spark

And let the fire light the dark

The bigger the fear, the greater the prize is

We’re standing on a wire

We gotta take the risk to fall down

To walk amongst the stars

The sharper the tears, the sweeter the laughter

We’re wearing out the tyres

Cause it’s the miles that make a road

If every lie needs a witness

To prove that truth is something else

We just need a smile to carry with us

To show that dreams are not that far

The bigger the fear, the greater the prize is

We’re standing on a wire

We gotta take the risk to fall down

To walk amongst the stars

The sharper the tears, the sweeter the laughter

We’re wearing out the tyres

Cause it’s the miles that make a road

The bigger the fear, the greater the prize is

We’re standing on a wire

We gotta take the risk to fall down

To walk amongst the stars

The sharper the tears, the sweeter the laughter

We’re wearing out the tyres

Cause it’s the miles that make a road
