Miles Apart, One Heart

 

[Intro]

 

Funny how the miles we couldn’t wait to lose

Turned into time we just want to hold on to…

​

[Instrumental]

 

[Verse 1]

 

We’d squeeze a whole month into one weekend

Made a hundred memories before saying goodbye again

You’d leave your sweater in the backseat of my car

The smell of your perfume kept you from feeling so far

 

We’d make a thousand plans for when we’d share a life

No more leaving Sunday, no more lonely nights

Every hello felt like heaven, every goodbye was déjà vu

The hardest part of loving you was having to leave you

 

[Pre-Chorus]

 

We couldn’t make the world spin faster

Couldn’t shrink the map or bend time

But every goodbye pulled us closer

To the day your heart stays beating next to mine

 

[Chorus]

 

We were miles apart, but still one heart

Our love made the distance disappear

Now forever doesn’t feel like enough time

When all I ever want is you right here

 

I was counting down the days till our dream came true

Now I’m counting every blessing I have with you

We beat the distance, now our future starts

We were miles apart, but still one heart

 

[Post Chorus]

 

Miles apart

One heart

Miles apart

One heart

 

[Verse 2]

 

Now your sweater’s hanging next to mine

No more packing bags or borrowed time

We make a dozen plans, then change ’em all

’Cause staying in with you beats going out at all

 

[Pre-Chorus]

 

What else could I ask for when you’re all I need?

Baby just promise me you’ll never leave

 

[Chorus]

 

We were miles apart, but still one heart

Our love made the distance disappear

Now forever doesn’t feel like enough time

When all I ever want is you right here

 

I was counting down the days till our dream came true

Now I’m counting every blessing I have with you

We beat the distance, now our future starts

We were miles apart, but still one heart

 

[Instrumental]

 

[Bridge]

 

We used to dream of days without goodbye

Now we're wishing we could slow the hands of time

We spent so long just waiting for our chance

Now we've got a lifetime, so let’s dance (dance) (dance)

 

[Final Chorus]

 

We were miles apart, but still one heart

Our love made the distance disappear

Now forever doesn’t feel like enough time

When all I ever want is you right here

 

I was counting down the days till our dream came true

Now I’m counting every blessing I have with you

We beat the distance, now our future starts

We were miles apart, but still one heart

 

[Outro]

 

We were miles apart…

Now one heart
