A Thousand Quiet Miles

A thousand quiet miles stretch between us now
Like torn pages lost
No one reads somehow
The silence sways
A ribbon in the breeze
Every breath I take feels like borrowed seas

Oh love
Oh love
Where do you go
When the stars forget their golden glow
You're the map
The road
The home I knew
But the sky's grown pale without you

The Moon wears your name in a silver haze
Its glow like a letter from better days
I reach for the air
But it slips my hand
Like trying to hold onto dry
Loose sand

I count the moments
I count the years
I lose my voice in the weight of tears

Oh love
Oh love
Where do you go
When the stars forget their golden glow
You're the map
The road
The home I knew
But the sky's grown pale without you

If time were a bird
It would never land
It circles my heart
Though I don't understand
Your voice lingers soft
Like a flame in snow
I chase its warmth
But it fades too slow
