A Thousand Miles
SADBOii Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Walking fast, faces pass and I'm homebound
Staring blankly ahead
Just making my way
Making a way through the crowd
And I need you
And I miss you
If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass me by?
Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles
If I could just see you
Tonight
It's always times like these
When I think of you
And wonder if you ever think of me
Cause everything's so wrong and I don't belong
Living in your precious memory
Cause I need you
And I miss you
And now I wonder
If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass me by?
Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles
If I could just see you
Tonight
And I, I don't wanna let you know
I, I drown in your memory
I, I don't wanna let this go
I, I don't
Making my way downtown
Walking fast, faces pass and I'm homebound
Staring blankly ahead, just making my way
Making a way through the crowd
And I still need you
And I still miss you
And now I wonder
If I could fall into the sky
Do you think time would pass us by
Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles
If I could just see you, oh, oh
If I could fall into the sky
Do you think time would pass me by
Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles
If I could just see you
If I could just hold you tonight

Line by Line Meaning
Making my way downtown
Starting my journey in the city
Walking fast, faces pass and I'm homebound
Walking quickly through the crowd, heading home
Staring blankly ahead
Lost in thought, not paying attention to surroundings
Just making my way
Continuing on my journey
Making a way through the crowd
Navigating through the busy people
And I need you
Feeling a strong desire for your presence
And I miss you
Feeling the absence of your company
And now I wonder
Contemplating the possibility of something
If I could fall
Imagining a hypothetical situation
Into the sky
Ascending to great heights
Do you think time
Questioning the passing of time
Would pass me by?
Wondering if time would elapse quickly
Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles
Expressing great willingness to put in effort
If I could just see you
Desiring to be in your presence
Tonight
At this specific moment in time
It's always times like these
Reflecting on past experiences
When I think of you
Recalling thoughts and memories of you
And wonder if you ever think of me
Pondering on whether or not you think about me
Cause everything's so wrong and I don't belong
Feeling out of place and disconnected
Living in your precious memory
Existing within the realm of your memory
And I still need you
Continuing to feel the need for you
And I still miss you
Continuing to feel the absence of your company
If I could fall into the sky
Reiterating the hypothetical situation
Do you think time would pass us by
Questioning the passing of time in relation to both
If I could just see you, oh, oh
Expressing a strong desire to be in your presence
I, I don't wanna let you know
Hesitant to reveal true emotions
I, I drown in your memory
Feeling consumed by thoughts of you
I, I don't wanna let this go
Refusing to move on
If I could just hold you tonight
Desiring physical touch and connection
