We started out with stars in our eyes Dreaming together beneath endless skies

Holding on to every promise we made Believing our love would never fade

Then life came calling from far away Taking you further day by day

Now all I have are messages and memories Trying to keep what's left of you and me

We gave it all that we could give But sometimes love alone can't win

There are miles between us tonight And I can feel you slipping out of sight

Not because we stopped believing Not because our hearts stopped beating

But the distance stole the time we had Turned the good into something sad

And now we're standing at the end of the road Watching our forever let go

Every late-night call felt shorter than before Every goodbye hurt a little more

I kept your picture close to my heart Trying to survive being worlds apart

We held on tight through every storm But lonely nights became the norm

And somewhere between the tears and the pain We lost what we were trying to save

I still hear your voice in my mind But I know I can't turn back time

There are miles between us tonight And I can feel you slipping out of sight

Not because we stopped believing Not because our hearts stopped beating

But the distance stole the time we had Turned the good into something sad

And now we're standing at the end of the road Watching our forever let go

If love was enough, we'd still be here Holding each other, keeping close and near

But some dreams break without a sound When two hearts can't find common ground

There are miles between us tonight Still I see your face when I close my eyes

You'll always be a part of me A chapter in my memory

And though our story had to end I'd choose your love all over again

Because what we had was beautiful and true Even if the distance took me from you

The miles may separate where we are But you'll always be my favorite scar.
