Ten Thousand Miles

by Alfie Boe

Lyrics
How full is my heart when it floats on the sea
How big are the waves that break you and me
I won't be a wreck on Old Jones' locker floor

No wave will keep me, keep me from you
No storm will shatter, shatter the blue
So light up your lamps
And lead me to your shore

Take the thorns from my feet
And let me run up to your door

Ten thousand miles
So far apart
The land between our lives
Ten thousand times
I say I love you
Each hour I survive
Ten thousand miles...

Might not be a hero, I'll give all I can
There's a hole in my heart
And a line in the sand
Help me make you leave
As the moon and the sun change

Age may come and call my name
But I will always hold this flame

Ten thousand miles
So far apart
The land between our lives
Ten thousand times I say I love you
Each hour I survive

Ten thousand miles
So far apart
Hits harder every time
Ten thousand miles...

From the water, help me swim
Our hearts are rising to the win
Breathe again, let me in

Ten thousand miles...
Ten thousand miles...
