Count the tears and weigh the cost.
Look for all the things I lost
I never thought I'd tell you a goodbye.
I'm gonna get back on the path I tread.
Run around inside my head.
I never thought I'd tell you a lie,but I lied.

And here we are a thousand miles from where we started.
And here I stand torn up and broken hearted.

Help me see the light again.
I need that now from you my friends.
I told you I would always try.
Well don't let me lose myself again.
I need your helping hand to mend.
I promised you I would always fly, another lie.

And here we are a thousand miles from where we started.
And here I stand torn up and broken hearted.

I never wanted you to go.
But I never asked you to stay here.
I never thought that love could get in the way here.
But now we have to fly.
Or is that just another lie.

And here we are a thousand miles from where we started.
And here I stand torn up and broken hearted.
