[Intro]
It's been a while since we've talked
The only way, I talk to you know
Is through my music
Things have been changing
[Verse 1]
Reminiscing back to the days, where we would take the train
Earbuds in our ears, listening to your favourite bands
The seats would be taken, so we'd be standing by the doors
Holding hands, never had a direction, it was a simple plan
Remember looking in your eyes, seeing me deep inside
A kid who was lost, someone rejected, denied
The feeling of dejection broken, shattered, sense of pride
A broken, shattered, soul, saw it all inside her smile
We had a lot of anger bottled up inside
To find a way to cope, we became each other's lights
When you were by my side, the world was passing slow
Loving you was innocent but I guess it's time to grow
[Chorus]
Oh you're too far away
Baby, someday I'll change
I'll be back soon some way
I'll be with you someday
Six thousand miles apart
Darling, don't drop my heart
Oh don't you run too far
Six thousand miles apart
[Verse 2]
Remember holding you for the last time, the airport
Handed me a scrapbook of poetry and precious memories
I was 'tryna act tough, so I fought back the tears
That is something I regret, wish I never let you go
Watching you walk, I could feel you were crying
I could taste my blood from the lips I was biting
Clutching to our book, I was silently screaming
Babygirl don't leave, I don't wanna stop believing
The anger, deep inside of me, fueled up again
Couldn't really cope, ended losing a friend
Said words I regret and now I'm in my room alone
I was immature and I guess it's time to grow
[Chorus]
Oh you're too far away
Baby, someday I'll change
I'll be back soon some way
I'll be with you someday
Six thousand miles apart
Darling, don't drop my heart
Oh don't you run too far
Six thousand miles apart
[Verse 3]
I've been tryna change for the better so maybe one day I can look
Into your eyes again, so baby please just wait a little longer
I promise I'll be stronger, I promise I am working
Life is like a lesson and I guess that I'm still learning
If we're really meant to be, guess we'll cross our paths again
Guess we'll have to wait and see, guess I'll have to trust the plan
You know that I'm stubborn, I'll need to learn to be patient
I'm someone who expects the most, I should lower expectations
I put my all into you, a melody I poured my soul into
We've been through hell and back, happiness then hell again
Not just lovers, we were friends, in the end, guess I'm glad
You were real and not just for show
[Chorus]
Oh you're too far away
Baby, someday I'll change
I'll be back soon some way
I'll be with you someday
Six thousand miles apart
Darling, don't drop my heart
Oh don't you run too far
Six thousand miles apart
