[Verse 1]
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
[Pre-Chorus]
Take the thorns from my feet
Let me run up to your door
[Chorus]
Ten thousand miles, so far apart
The land between our lives
Ten thousand times to say I love you
Each hour I survive
Ten thousand miles
[Verse 2]
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 me
As the moon and the sun change hands
[Pre-Chorus]
Age may come and call my name
I will always hold this flame
[Chorus]
Ten thousand miles, so far apart
The land between our lives
Ten thousand times to say I love you
Each hour I survive
Ten thousand miles, too far apart
It's harder every time
Ten thousand miles
[Bridge]
From the water, help me swim
Our hearts arise into the wind
Breathe again and let me in
[Outro]
Ten thousand miles
Ten thousand miles
