The song “A Thousand Miles” by Vanessa Carlton is a song about longing for the one you love. The lyrics tell the story of someone who is putting all their effort into making their way to the person they adore and missing them deeply while they’re apart. The chorus reflects the desire to fall into the sky, as if to get to their love quicker and faster, so that time might pass faster and they could be reunited. The song illustrates how much one can miss another and will do anything to be with them again.
