1000 Miles Away
Echoes of Distance: A Tale of Longing and Lost Love
Lyrics
The echo of "goodbye" got poisoned by the lie:
The speaker reflects on a tainted farewell marked by deception.
"I'll never let you go"
A promise of eternal attachment was made, now shattered.
The shadow of your smile is gone, I wonder why
The joyful memory of your smile has vanished, leaving confusion.
But now I'll never know
The speaker expresses regret for never discovering the truth.
Let the river flow to the place where sorrow grows
Desires the emotional pain to flow away to where sorrow resides.
No, I just can't let you go!
Despite the pain, the speaker cannot bring themselves to part.
1000 miles away - can you hear me calling when I see you cry
Addressing the distance, questions if the cries are audible.
1000 miles away - wasted days are passing by
Time is slipping away without the physical presence.
You're 1000 miles away
Reiterates the emotional separation of being a thousand miles away.
Another day, another place, another scar across my face
Introduces a new day, place, and a fresh emotional wound.
At least it's something new
Finds solace in the novelty, though acknowledging the pain.
You've disappeared - I'm left behind, about to lose my mind
The person is gone, leaving the speaker in emotional turmoil.
I had my faith in you
Expresses disappointment, having placed trust in the now absent person.
Let the river flow to the place which I will never know
Wishes for emotional release to an unknown place.
No, I just can't let you go
The speaker struggles to detach despite the emotional turmoil.
1000 miles away - can you hear me calling when I see you cry
Reiterates the longing, questioning if cries are heard from afar.
1000 miles away - wasted days are passing by
Time passes, and the speaker feels the loss intensely.
1000 miles away - while the sun is shining river's running dry
Acknowledges the distance and the drying up of emotional sustenance.
1000 miles away - I never cared to say goodbye
Admits to neglecting the opportunity to bid farewell.
