I took a few steps forward
But thought a few thoughts back
I brought too many memories
While the bad ones still stack
I thought I had seen you leave
Just with different faces
And every time I had love near
These were all just endless chases
I've seen you leave on a plane
I've seen you leave and walk away
I've seen you get on board that train
Each time my heart felt some sort of pain
This distance isn't measured
in metric units or vast seas
It's measured in what we feel
and what our closed eyes decide to see
I saw you walk the other way
I stood here at the fork
You disappeared in the lines of people
While I stood here in New York
I packed my bags and stared at the sky
Night and Day just pass me by
I'm walking opposite of where you're going
But maybe we'll meet again in time
