[Verse 1]
When we first met, I thought I made a friend,
But soon I realized that I fell for you.
[Verse 2]
Why? Why did we have to be so far?
I just want to hold your hand, walk with you side by side,
To laugh together,
But I'm 1,600 miles away, you love.
[Chorus]
1,600 miles away, away from you.
Too far to hold your hand, to hold your hand,
To walk side by side, to hold me in your arms —
1,600 miles too far to walk.
[Verse 3]
Waiting to see you is like waiting for an eternity.
I want to be in your arms,
To be living in a home where I can give you all my love.
[Verse 4]
I was lonely for years until I met you.
You made my days no longer blue — you made them bright.
When I'm sad, you make me happy.
Every time you're blue, I make your day shine.
[Chorus]
1,600 miles away, away from you.
Too far to hold your hand, to hold your hand,
To walk side by side, to hold me in your arms —
1,600 miles too far to walk.
[Bridge]
When you come to me, I'll be waiting
To hold your hand, to walk with you,
To be in your arms.
I'll be your love... till death do us part.
[Final Chorus]
1,600 miles away, away from you.
Too far to hold your hand, to hold your hand,
To walk side by side, to hold me in your arms —
1,600 miles too far to walk.
But I’ll wait, I’ll stay, I’ll love you through
All 1,600 miles — for you.
