Just to see her (see her)
But she's far far away
And I'd do anything just to see her face
But she's far far away
Walk a thousand miles just to see her smile again

Sittin' on a plane
Reminiscing back when I made that mistake
I wish it never ended with a heartbreak
Now your heart broken, tears in ya face
Ask myself why, looking at the sky
If I could turn back I'd make it all right
Praying that you better but its still stormy weather
Don't wanna let go but the rain wont let up
Now you gone, still thinking bout you everyday
And I know feelings was hurt and you can blame me but
I'm sorry for the games that I played
But now it's too late
And now she's'

Now she's far far away
And I'd do anything just to see her face
But she's far far away
Walk a thousand miles just to see her smile again

It's cold putting up a fight
Arguing back and forth through the night
Regardless what I said and I don't most of it
You know I really love you, this the realest goin' get
It take time to realise what you really wanna know
You was ready for it all but your feelings I ignored
I know my fault, I should've gave more
Now you're miles away and I'm miles on tour
Now it's drums playing, crowd singing
Light changing, wish you was here to witness all that
It starts fading
They say two wrongs don't make it right
And I was wrong and now it aint right

'Cause she's far far away
And I'd do anything just to see her face
But she's far far away
Walk a thousand miles just to see her smile again

Na na na nah
If I could turn back
If I could make it right
I'd do just that
If I could make it right
I'd do it all tonight
Hold you in my arms, with you I'd spend my life

Na na na nah
If I could turn back
If I could make it right
I'd do just that
I'd do just that
If I could turn back

(Come back here again)

'Cause she's far far away
And I'd do anything just to see her face
But she's far far away
Walk a thousand miles just to see her smile again
