It's been longer now than it ever has before
Another mem'ry is another slammin' door
It's gettin' too dark now to see
Every photograph is another lesson learned
Every sleepless night is another page I've turned
I wake up to fallen dreams
And the petals start to fade by the picket fences
Just another shade of miles and miles to go
If I had a chance, I must have missed it long ago
If I could run away, I wouldn't have to let you go
This angel's bound to stray
Like an hourglass, I'm a soul of sinking sand
You try to hold my heart
And I will slip right through your hands
Time just blows away
And the petals start to fade by the picket fences
Just another shade of miles and miles to go
And the tears forever flow
Petals start to fade by the picket fences
Just another shade of miles and miles to go
This angel's bound to stray
It's another shade of miles and miles to go
