I took just one second to stand back and reflect
To challenge my own sanity and emotional intellect
With just one whisper, a promise forever true
Through the Storms and Wars I've Fought, I still only fight for you


A thousand miles in either direction, it's all the same
The same old tales of those heros and all their fame
And I've learned so much of this world in so very little time
If the East is the Poem, then the West must be the Rhyme.


It took but a second to portray within my mind
All the things that I've gained and all that I've left behind
And with that promise, I bide my time petrified
Until that day, if any day, when I have you at my side

A thousand miles in the depth of my mind
I invite you to come into it and leave this world behind
So with my heart on standby, I bide with only one wish
And if the North is the Love, the south is surely your Kiss.

With just one breath, I throw all caution far away
My very soul hangs on the next words that you say
And in the sober clarity of the beauty in your eyes
I feel something deep inside that comes as no suprise

A thousand miles in either direction, I'll go wherever I need
Always right behind you, following your lead
So long as I have your heart, I shall belong to you
If this is my Hell, then my Heaven's with you
