Miles Apart

[Verse 1]
It all began on this very day
Eight whole years in the past
Two hearts connected by fate
But separated by a wall of glass
I know you might seem unreachable
When you're so far away
But when you log in and message me
I cannot help but say

[Chorus]
That if we just stay here
Right where we are
Seems like you're so near
It's clear that you were
The one for me from the start
I'll do my best to keep you safe from harm
Even if I can't hold you in my arms
Though I can't be there
I'll keep you close in my heart
Though we're miles apart
(Ay)

[Verse 2]
This virtual fantasy started
On pixelated ground
Can't feel your physical touch
Yet I'm still cold when you're not around
Naysayers told us "Don't fall in love
With someone you don't know"
But while I can't reach out to hold you
I'll never let you go

[Chorus]
If we just stay here
Right where we are
Seems like you're so near
Though you're so far
It's clear that you were
The one for me from the start
I'll do my best to keep you safe from harm
Even if I can't hold you in my arms
Though I can't be there
I'll keep you close in my heart
Though we're miles apart

[Bridge]
You mean the world to me, even though you're several countries away
When you're here by my side my heart whispers, "Just stay, please stay"
I promise one day you'll be here, with me, someday
