[Verse 1]
Your coffee cools beside the window
Mine is steaming in a different town
You send a picture of the blue hour
I send the train lines winding southbound
[Pre-Chorus]
Every little day we tell each other
Makes the distance lose a little weight
I can feel your hand inside the promise
We are not too far, we are just delayed
[Chorus]
You are my home from a thousand miles away
The voice I reach for at the ending of the day
No road can take what we have made
I keep your name where my heart stays
Until the wheels bring me to you
I will keep choosing us through every blue
You are my home from a thousand miles away
And I am coming, I am coming back someday
[Verse 2]
Your Sunday starts before my Saturday
Still we find a quiet hour to share
You laugh about the burnt-out hallway bulb
I tell you how I saved your seat upstairs
[Pre-Chorus]
Every little plan we make together
Turns tomorrow into something real
I can cross a map with one small message
Love is not a place, it's what we feel
[Chorus]
You are my home from a thousand miles away
The voice I reach for at the ending of the day
No road can take what we have made
I keep your name where my heart stays
Until the wheels bring me to you
I will keep choosing us through every blue
You are my home from a thousand miles away
And I am coming, I am coming back someday
[Bridge]
When the station doors slide open
When I see you waiting there
All the nights we counted slowly
Will be folded in your arms
[Final Chorus]
You are my home from a thousand miles away
The voice I reached for at the ending of each day
No road could take what we have made
I kept your name where my heart stays
Now every wheel is bringing me to you
Every mile was proof that we could make it through
You are my home, the only place I want to stay
I am here now, I am here now, don't let go today
[Outro]
I am here now, don't let go
A thousand miles, and still I know
