Miles apart

Verse 1 (the past & regret):

“Back in those high school halls, you were something rare,

Said you’d wait for me, promised you’d be there.

But I was blind, chasing shadows in my head,

Left your love behind, chose another road instead.”

⸻

Pre-Chorus:

“Now I see the truth I couldn’t then,

Wishing I could go back in time again.”

⸻

Chorus (the heart of the song):

“I still want to try, even miles apart,

The distance is heavy, but you’re still in my heart.

If you’ll let me prove it, if you’ll give me a sign,

I’ll fight through the silence, to make you mine.”

⸻

Verse 2 (the present):

“I know your heart is healing, it’s too fresh, too soon,

I don’t want to rush you, don’t want to take that room.

But I can’t hide this feeling that’s been haunting me,

Even in the uniform, you’re all I want to see.”

⸻

Bridge (raw confession):

“I messed it up once, I won’t pretend,

If you give me the chance, I won’t let it end.

I’ll carry your love wherever I go,

Stronger than the battles, it’s all I know.”

⸻

Final Chorus (hopeful):

“I still want to try, though the road is long,

With you in my corner, I know I’ll stay strong.

If your heart can trust me, then I won’t let go,

I’ll fight for this love, just to let you know.”
