9999 Miles

I've been so far away from everybody

I don't know who I am anymore

And all that remains

Are the memories from before

I've been in this phase already

I can feel the pain all over again

So I don't know anyone around me

Could you take me home, could I get some sleep?

And if I fall asleep I won't wake up again

And I'd be dreaming of you and the things we would do

When you'd come back

And you're so far away

Even though you're right here

You traveled the distance for me

But I couldn't do the same for you

Nine thousand nine ninety-nine miles plus the one

Coming all the way to mine

I looked outside my door to see you there all alone

Didn't think it was true, I couldn't believe it was you

Can I go back in time? I liked the old ways of living

We'd meet come Saturday, oh, that would be nice

And you're so far away even though you're right here

You're a mile away from me, I'm a mile away from you, my love

And tonight I'll wait for you like the times before

Try to get you on the call

I'll wait by the door

Hoping you'll look down from your window

As our eyes meet

As our eyes meet

And if I fall asleep I won't wake up again

And I'd be dreaming of you and the things we would do

When you'd come back

And you're so far away

Even though you're right here

You traveled the distance for me

But I couldn't do the same for you
