[Verse 1]
G
I remember your smile, though the years made it faint,
D/F#
A soft light in the dark, erasing my pain.
Em7
You held me close, a warmth I can’t forget,
Cadd9
Even now, I feel your love, though we hadn’t truly met.
G
They took me away, before I could understand,
D/F#
The reasons, the lies, the cruel sleight of hand.
Em7
I searched for the pieces, a heart torn apart,
Cadd9
Sixteen years of silence, still you stayed in my heart.
[Pre-Chorus]
Am7
Through the distance, through the years,
G/B
Through the silence and the tears.
Cadd9
Your love found me, broke the chains,
Dsus4 D
A light that heals, a love that remains.
[Chorus]
G
Six hundred miles can’t silence your voice,
Em7
You call every day, and I know I have a choice.
Cadd9
To feel the love you give, though you’re so far away,
D N/C
You’re teaching me what it means to be loved, every day.
[Verse 2]
G
Homeless and lost, I wandered alone,
D/F#
In a world so cold, no place to call home.
Em7
Then there you were, in a station’s embrace,
Cadd9
A stranger’s smile that I knew—I knew it was your face.
G
We hugged for the first time, sixteen years too late,
D/F#
Not your fault or mine, just a twisted fate.
Em7
Now I carry your words like a lantern at night,
Cadd9
Through the shadows, you’ve shown me the lord’s light.
[Pre-Chorus]
Am7
Through the distance, through the years,
G/B
Through the silence and the tears.
Cadd9
Your love found me, broke the chains,
Dsus4 D
A light that heals, a love that remains.
[Chorus]
G
Six hundred miles can’t silence your voice,
Em7
You call every day, and I know I have a choice.
Cadd9
To feel the love you give, though you’re so far away,
D
You’re teaching me what it means to be loved, every day.
[Bridge]
Cmaj7
They don’t know we’ve met,
G
and maybe it’s best,
Am7 Em
To keep this love hidden, safe in my chest.
Em
For my safety, for yours, we walk a fine line,
Dsus4
But every “I love you” makes
D N/C
this life feel divine
[Verse 3]
G
You’ve given me something I never knew,
D/F#
A bond that’s unbreakable, timeless, and true.
Em7
Living alone, but I don’t feel apart,
Cadd9 N/C
You’re six hundred miles, but you’re here in my heart.
[Outro]
G
It’s never too late to say, “I love you,”
D/F#
To build what was stolen, to make something new.
Em7
Through distance, through time, through all the lord knows we’ve been through,
Cadd9
Mom, I’ve found home, and it’s with you.
