walked out the door and drove
didn't know where I was at all
left your tea there on the stove
the kids, the house, I left it all
when you said you didn't love me
it just tore me up inside
you'll never know
where do I go
when love's across the miles
Now there's so much that I want to say
but I don't want to hurt you
can't find a reason why to stay
even though I want to
but now that i've let you know
i think i should let you go
and maybe one day you'll see
it's not her heart that's breaking
when your eyes won't seem to dry
it's not the love you're making
when you're looking to the sky
it's the little things that matter
the hugs, the winks, the smiles
it's the love that always makes it
makes it across the miles
now don't you go and take this
as a permanent goodbye
i know i'd never have the strength
to look you in the eye
to tell you i don't need you
that you don't matter anymore
even though you've shown
away you've grown
i still wonder why...
it's not your heart that's breaking
when your eyes won't seem to dry
it's not the love you're making
when you're looking to the sky
it's the little things that matter
the hugs, the winks, the smiles
it's love that somehow makes it
makes it across the miles
you asked how you could help me
when i had nothing left to lose
now i'm broken and i'm tempted
but what the hell would it prove?
there's no more left inside me
no winks no hugs no smiles
what can you do to help me
when i'm lost across the miles?
it's not your heart that's breaking
when your eyes won't seem to dry
it's not the love you're making
when you're looking to the sky
it's the little things that matter
your hugs, your winks, your smiles
love made it across the miles...
