Several Hundred Miles And Several Hundred Weeks

The sun was in my eyes when we said goodbye
I will never know if she had a smile
Or if there were tears on her cheek

And now we have been apart
Several hundred miles
And several hundred weeks

My heart does the thinking
But the words get trapped in my head
And time passed long ago when love should have been said

Now it's too late for the words I could speak
For it's been several hundred miles
And several hundred weeks

The sun is setting low
This park bench is feeling cold
And as I leave there's no one around who needs to take my seat

The leaves begin to fall and I start to recall
It's been several hundred miles
And several hundred weeks
