“Miles Apart”

I was standing on a mountain

Outside a driving rain.

My mind was fully dusted,

My eyes were filled with pain.

I tried to catch an angel

Attach her to my heart.

Instead, I found a stranger, andThen we grew apart.

If we were born to be together

Don’t you think it’s time that we better

Stop trying to feeeeel!

Like we’re miles apart?

We could not find the answers

We both were want to see.

She said her name was lonely

And mine was destiny.

My eyes grew round with wonder

As I watched this tale unfold.

I merged into a clearing

From a wasteland so cold.

If we were born to be together

Don’t you think it’s time that we better

Stop trying to feeeeel!

Like we’re miles apart?

I stood before a picture

Of a soul-bleeding heart.

She was tongue-tied with emotion

Her mask described the part.

She sang like Aphrodite

And cast a wicked spell.

My body felt the siren

My heart began to quell.

If we were born to be together

Don’t you think it’s time that we better

Stop trying to feeeeel!

Like we’re miles apart?

To tell you this my story

Is but a distant rhapsody.

A tale of glistening wonder

Laid bare for all to see.

Her vibes of distant thunder

Transfix me from above

Our souls are bound together

By the Gods of love…The Gods of love…The Gods of love…

The Gods of love…
