How does your mind work
I want to know
You say you want me
As you’re letting me go

I toss and turn at night
Wondering how
How did I get this far
I’m in deep now

Miles and miles and miles between us 
I still can’t shake you away
Miles and miles and miles between us
Sometimes I’d wish you to stay

Pretentious choices don’t seem 
To make sense
You have your walls up
I have my self defense

You said you’re no good with relationships 
You say I wouldn’t be there for you
Like you’d expect
But that’s not like you
you’re not everybody else 
Why do you always hide from yourself 

Miles and miles and miles between us 
I still can’t shake you away
Miles and miles and miles between us
Sometimes I’d wish you to stay
Miles and miles and miles between us 
I still can’t shake you away
Miles and miles and miles between us
Sometimes I’d wish you to stay
