I walk down the highway
I think about my loves
About the losses I have felt 
And the heartbreaks I have caused

Looking far behind me
Going nowhere really slow
I turn my heart and think of you
And the thousand miles to go

The shadows of the morning
Chase the daylight from the dawn
I had a multitude of thoughts
That I wrote down in this song

Should I take a tempting detour
Or keep walking down this road?
How do you know the right choice 
With a thousand miles to go?

When I was a young boy
My father used the belt
He said it was out of kindness
But only tears are what I felt

I swore when I grew up
I'd never let my feelings show
But who wants that in a love
With a thousand miles to go?

My skin starts to burn
When it longs to feel your touch
You give breadcrumbs to the starved
And claim that's enough

Naked feelings of us
And ideas whispered low
But does smoke satisfy
With a thousand miles to go?

When I was growing up
My mother never did forgive
She passed her hate down to me
And that's how we lived

But the Christ taught me
Seventy times seven more
Yet my cross grows heavy
With a thousand miles to go

Pictures need a frame
Like the moon needs the sun
Without that compliment, you know
The darkness has won

Apathy, love's poison
Like yes is to no
An unloved heart will cease to beat
With a thousand miles to go

The costs have been sunk
In the desert of my mind
You ask for some change
And they say "just give me time"

I've traveled a thousand miles
But I see that I know
When you think you're finished
You'll still have a thousand more miles to go
