Romantic Love Songs For Long-Distance Relationships

1. When You’re Gone – Avril Lavigne

When one part of your heart is pulled away by distance, the other part will long and wait and cry, hoping to be reunited soon. This song embodies the turmoil inside you because of separation.

Lyrics

I always needed time on my own
I never thought I’d
Need you there when I cry
And the days feel like years when I’m alone
And the bed where you lie
Is made up on your side

When you walk away
I count the steps that you take
Do you see how much I need you right now?

When you’re gone
The pieces of my heart are missin’ you
When you’re gone
The face I came to know is missin’, too
When you’re gone
The words I need to hear
To always get me through the day
And make it okay
I miss you

I’ve never felt this way before
Everything that I do
Reminds me of you
And the clothes you left, they lie on the floor
And they smell just like you
I love the things that you do

When you walk away
I count the steps that you take
Do you see how much I need you right now?

We were made for each other
Out here forever
I know we were
Yeah, yeah
And all I ever wanted was for you to know
Everything I do, I give my heart and soul
I can hardly breathe; I need to feel you here with me
Yeah

When you’re gone
The pieces of my heart are missin’ you
When you’re gone
The face I came to know is missin’, too
When you’re gone
The words I need to hear
Will always get me through the day
And make it okay
I miss you

2. Here Without You – 3 Doors Down

Sometimes, it is not just distance that leaves you feeling isolated from your love. Circumstances can also play villians. But guess what? Distance is just a number, and if your relationship is meant to be, it’s meant for them!

Lyrics

A hundred days have made me older
Since the last time that I saw your pretty face.
A thousand lies have made me colder
And I don’t think I can look at this the same.
All the miles that separate
Disappear now when I’m dreamin’ of your face.

I’m here without you baby
But you’re still on my lonely mind.
I think about you baby and I dream about you all the time.
I’m here without you baby
But you’re still with me in my dreams
And tonight girl, it’s only you and me … yeah

The miles just keep rollin’
As the people leave their way to say hello
I’ve heard this life is overrated
But I hope that it gets better as we go … oh yeah

Everything I know, and anywhere I go,
It gets hard but it won’t take away my love.
And when the last one falls, when its all said and done.
It gets hard but it won’t take away my love … whoa oh oh

I’m here without you baby
But you’re still on my lonely mind.
I think about you baby
And I dream about you all the time.

I’m here without you baby
But you’re still with me in my dreams
And tonight, it’s only you and me… yeah oh yeah
Oh oh

An anonymous blogger who likes to be called Guru comments that this song by 3 Doors Down reminded him of his woman. He says, “This song reflects my feelings when I am missing the person that I’m in love with. Though I am not very far away from her, I still miss her a lot nevertheless. So here’s to being here without you (i).”

3. Nothing Like Us – Justin Bieber

Some relationships are never meant to be. And who better than Justin Beiber can share the pain of a broken relationship.

Lyrics

Lately I’ve been thinking, thinking about what we had
And I know it was hard, it was all that we knew, yeah!

Have you been drinking, to take all the pain away?
I wish that I could give you what you deserve
‘Cause nothing can ever, ever replace you
Nothing can make me feel like you do, yeah!

You know there’s no one, I can relate to
I know we won’t find a love that’s so true

There’s nothing like us
There’s nothing like you for me
Together through the storm

There’s nothing like us
There’s nothing like you for me, together

I gave you everything babe
Well, everything I had to give
Girl, why would you push me away?

Lost in confusion, like an illusion
You know I’m used to making your day

But that is the past now, we didn’t last now
I guess that this is meant to be

Tell me, was it worth it? We were so perfect
But baby I just want you to see

There’s nothing like us
There’s nothing like you for me
Together through the storm

There’s nothing like us
There’s nothing like you for me, together

There’s nothing like us
There’s nothing like you for me
Together through the storm

There’s nothing like us
There’s nothing like you for me, together

4. Long Distance – Megan, Liz

Talk about missing someone badly, and this song comes to mind. It tells how cherishing the little moments is all that you are left yearning for on the other side of the phone.

Lyrics

I heard you were just passing through
I never meant to get attached to you
The day we met, I still hold onto
It was out of the blue
You played a show
And we locked eyes, by the stereo
I fell into your eyes so blue

No matter how it goes, goes, goes
I just want you to know, know, know
I’m reminiscing, thinking about us kissing
Now could you take, take, take the million miles away, way, way?
It’s you I’m missing
In this long distance

We keep in touch, though out of reach
I almost wish we didn’t meet
It’s not enough to keep a romance sweet
I was out of my mind to let you in
I should have thought of you as just a friend
But now you’re got me right until the end

But it makes a good story anyway
All the memories created in one day
I guess they found a place to stay
So we’re keeping up with this phone tag
Missing messages and signs that we’re not okay
Just pretend you feel the same

That no matter how it goes, goes, goes
I just want you to know, know, know
I’m reminiscing, thinking about us kissing
Now could you take, take, take the million miles away, way, way?
It’s you I’m missing
In this long distance

5. Many the Miles – Sara Bareilles

Love can make people do crazy things. Even something like following your loved one across the globe seems the best thing to do.

Lyrics

There’s too many things that I haven’t done yet
There’s too many sunsets I haven’t seen
You can’t waste the day wishing it’d slow down
You would’ve thought by now
I’d have learned something

I made up my mind when I was a young girl
I’ve been given this one world
I won’t worry it away, no
Now and again I lose sight of the good life
I get stuck in a low light
But then love comes in

How far do I have to go to get to you
Many the miles
Many the miles
How far do I have to go to get to you
Many the miles
But send me the miles and I’ll be happy to follow you, love

I do what I can wherever I end up
To keep giving my good love
And spreading it around
‘Cause I’ve had my fair share of take care and goodbyes
I’ve learned how to cry
And I’m better for that

Sing, how far do I have to go to get to you
Many the miles
Many the miles
How far do I have to go to get to you
Many the miles
Send me the miles and I’ll be happy to, yeah

Red letter day and I’m in a blue mood
Wishing that blue would just carry me away
I’ve been talking about
Don’t know if it’s helping or not
But surely something has got to, got to, got to give
‘Cause I can’t keep waiting to live

How far do I have to go to get to you
Many the miles
Many the miles
How far do I have to go to get to you
Many the miles
But send me the miles and I’ll be happy to yeah
How far do I have to go to get to you
Many the miles
Many the miles
How far do I have to go to get to you
Many the miles
Many the miles
I’ve been talking to God, don’t know if it’s helping or not
Many the miles
Many the miles
How far do I have to go to get to you
Many the miles
Ooh, send me the miles and I’ll be happy to
Follow you, love

There’s too many things I haven’t done yet
There’s too many sunsets I haven’t seen

6. The Girl – City and Colour

It takes not one but both partners to make a long-distance relationship work

. And when your partner works hard for it, let them know how much you appreciate it.

Lyrics

I wish I could do better by you,
’cause that’s what you deserve
You sacrifice so much of your life
In order for this to work.

While I’m off chasing my own dreams
Sailing around the world
Please know that I’m yours to keep
My beautiful girl

When you cry a piece of my heart dies
Knowing that I may have been the cause
If you were to leave
Fulfill someone else’s dreams
I think I might totally be lost
You don’t ask for no diamond rings no delicate string of pearls
That’s why I wrote this song to sing
My beautiful girl

ooooo ooo ohhh ohh oh oh

One, two, one two three four
I wish I could do better by you
’cause it’s what you deserve
You sacrifice so much of your life
in order for this to work

While I’m off chasing my own dreams (my own dreams)
sailing around the world (’round the world)
Please know that I’m yours to keep
My beautiful girl

And when you cry a piece of my heart dies
Knowing that I may have been the cause
If you were to leave and fulfill someone else’s dreams
I think I might totally be lost

But you don’t ask for no diamond rings (Diamond rings)
No delicate string of pearls (String of pearls)
That’s why I wrote this song to sing
My beautiful girl

ooooo ooo ohhh ohh oh oh
ooooo ooo ohhh ohh oh oh
ooooo ooo ohhh ohh oh oh
ooooo ooo ohhh ohh oh oh

But you don’t ask for no diamond rings (Diamond rings)
No delicate string of pearls (String of Pearls)
That’s why I wrote this song to sing
My beautiful girl.

7. Jet Lag – Simple Plan (Feat. Natasha Bedingfield)

Catching up with someone from another time zone can drive anyone nuts. But when the time comes to meet them finally, even a few seconds of wait feels unbearable.

Lyrics

So jet-lagged

What time is it where you are?
I miss you more than anything
And back at home you feel so far
Waitin’ for the phone to ring
It’s gettin’ lonely livin’ upside down
I don’t even wanna be in this town
Tryin’ to figure out the time zones makin’ me crazy

You say good morning
When it’s midnight
Going out of my head
Alone in this bed
I wake up to your sunset
And it’s driving me mad
I miss you so bad
And my heart, heart, heart is so jet-lagged
Heart, heart, heart is so jet-lagged
Heart, heart, heart is so jet-lagged, is so jet-lagged

What time is it where you are?
Five more days and I’ll be home
I keep your picture in my car
I hate the thought of you alone
I’ve been keepin’ busy all the time
Just to try to keep you off my mind
Tryin’ to figure out the time zones makin’ me crazy

You say good morning
When it’s midnight
Going out of my head
Alone in this bed
I wake up to your sunset
And it’s drivin’ me mad
I miss you so bad
And my heart, heart, heart is so jet-lagged
Heart, heart, heart is so jet-lagged
Heart, heart, heart is so jet-lagged, is so jet lagged

I miss you so bad [x5]
I wanna share your horizon
I miss you so bad
And see the same sun rising
I miss you so bad
And turn the hour hand back to when you were holding me

You say good morning
When it’s midnight
Going out of my head
Alone in this bed
I wake up to your sunset
And it’s drivin’ me mad
I miss when you say good morning
But it’s midnight
Going out of my head
Alone in this bed
I wake up to your sunset
And it’s drivin’ me mad
I miss you so bad
And my heart, heart, heart is so jet-lagged
Heart, heart, heart is so jet-lagged
Heart, heart, heart is so jet-lagged, is so jet-lagged, is so jet-lagged

8. Someday – Bryan Greenberg

You may not be able to be in one place for long, but when things get tough, your heart wishes to be close to your love. It may be for just a single day, but you know who you would like to go back to.
Video Song:

Lyrics

It’s the biggest storm in years, they say
Couldn’t take a plane so I hopped a train
Well I’d like to stay
In a stormy winter day
So I’ll come back to you someday

As the states rolled by, it’s all so clear
I’m everywhere but I’m never right here
It’s always the same
Constant change
But I’ll come back to you someday

So close, so far
So long the world is
Spinning me away

I’ll travel night just to see your face
The way you touch, the way you taste.
Even if only for a day
Coz I’ll come back to you someday

I’ll speak the truth, it’s all I know
As your tears fall to the snow
We both know, tonight that I can’t stay
But I’ll come back to you someday

So close, so far
So long the world is
Spinning me away

So close, so far
So long the world
It’s spinning me away

So close, so far
So long the world is
Spinning me away

Oh yeah, yeah …
Spinning me away

9. All of the Stars – Ed Sheeran

Ever looked at the sky and wondered if your loved one sees it too? Ed Sheeran encapsulates this in this song.

Lyrics

It’s just another night
And I’m staring at the moon
I saw a shooting star
And thought of you
I sang a lullaby
By the waterside and knew
If you were here,
I’d sing to you
You’re on the other side
As the skyline splits in two
I’m miles away from seeing you
I can see the stars
From America
I wonder, do you see them, too?

So open your eyes and see
The way our horizons meet
And all of the lights will lead
Into the night with me
And I know these scars will bleed
But both of our hearts believe
All of these stars will guide us home

I can hear your heart
On the radio beat
They’re playing ‘Chasing Cars’
And I thought of us
Back to the time,
You were lying next to me
I looked across and fell in love
So I took your hand
Back through lamp lit streets I knew
Everything led back to you
So can you see the stars?
Over Amsterdam
You’re the song my heart is
Beating to

And, oh, I know
And oh, I know, oh
I can see the stars
From America

10. Come Back… Be Here – Taylor Swift

You may kiss them goodbye, but the moment you realize they won’t be around you, your heart will want to pull them back in your embrace.

Lyrics

You said it in a simple way
4AM, the second day
How strange that I don’t know you at all
Stumbled through the long goodbye
One last kiss, then catch your flight
Right when I was just about to fall

I told myself, don’t get attached
But in my mind I play it back
Spinning faster than the plane that took you

And this is when the feeling sinks in
I don’t wanna miss you like this
Come back, be here
Come back, be here
I guess you’re in New York today
I don’t wanna need you this way
Come back, be here
Come back, be here

The delicate beginning rush
The feeling you can know so much
Without knowing anything at all
And now that I can put this down
If I had known what I know now
I never would have played so nonchalant

Taxi cabs and busy streets
That never bring you back to me
I can’t help but wish you took me with you

And this is when the feeling sinks in
I don’t wanna miss you like this
Come back, be here
Come back, be here
I guess you’re in London today
And I don’t wanna need you this way
Come back, be here
Come back, be here

ah-ah, oh-oh
Ah-ah, oh-oh
(Aah) ah-ah, oh-oh

This is falling in love in the cruelest way
This is falling for you and you are worlds away

New York, be here
But you’re in London and I break down
‘Cause it’s not fair that you’re not around

This is when the feeling sinks in
I don’t wanna miss you like this
Come back, be here
Come back, be here
I guess you’re in New York today
And I don’t wanna need you this way
Come back, be here
Come back, be here
ah-ah, oh-oh
I don’t wanna miss you like this

(Aah) ah-ah, oh-oh
come back, be here
(Aah) come back, be here

11. I Want Crazy – Hunter Hayes

Love doesn’t feel like love if you haven’t done something crazy for a loved one. And when you feel like you are losing your mind, just get on that flight and go see them.

Lyrics

I’m booking myself a one way flight
I gotta see the color in your eyes
And telling myself I’m gonna be alright
Without you baby is a waste of time

Yeah, our first date, girl, the seasons changed
It got washed away in a summer rain
You can’t undo a fall like this
‘Cause love don’t know what distance is
Yeah, I know it’s crazy

But I don’t want “good” and I don’t want “good enough”
I want “can’t sleep, can’t breathe without your love”
Front porch and one more kiss, it doesn’t make sense to anybody else
Who cares if you’re all I think about,
I’ve searched the world and I know now,
It ain’t right if you ain’t lost your mind
Yeah, I don’t want easy, I want crazy
Are you with me baby? Let’s be crazy

Yeah

I wanna be scared, don’t wanna know why
Wanna feel good, don’t have to be right
The world makes all kinds of rules for love
I say you gotta let it do what it does

I don’t want just another hug and a kiss goodnight
Catchin’ up calls and a date sometimes
I love that we’re rebels, and we still believe
We’re the kind of crazy people wish that they could be, yeah

Oh, and I know we’re crazy, yeah

Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na

No, I don’t want “good” and I don’t want “good enough”
I want “can’t sleep, can’t breathe without your love”
Front porch and one more kiss, it doesn’t make sense to anybody else
Who cares if you’re all I think about,
I’ve searched the world and I know now,
It ain’t right if you ain’t lost your mind
Yeah, I don’t want easy, I want crazy

Yeah, look at us baby, tonight the midnight rules are breaking
There’s no such thing as wild enough,
And maybe we just think too much
Who needs to play it safe in love?
Let’s be crazy!

Na na na na oh na na na na oh

Who cares if we’re crazy? We gotta be crazy
I know that we’re crazy, so let’s be crazy
Yeah…

12. Love Remembers – Craig Morgan

Love hurts! Yes, it does because the heart remembers everything — especially the one you love and cannot have.

Lyrics

You can’t forget what love was wearing
When it walked out your front door
Where you fell down to your knees
And can’t forget the kind of suitcase
That was packed out on the sidewalk
While you cried there beggin’ please
But love remembers

You can lie and tell yourself
You’re over it and someone else will take love’s place
And this is for the best
You can lie in that bed
In a stranger’s arms reachin’ for comfort
Close your eyes and still get no rest

Cause love remembers
The smell of a summer day
Lying in a hammock over fresh cut grass
And the promise of forever
Yeah love remembers
The sound of the pouring rain
Beatin’ down on the top of a car
On the side of the road
Where it couldn’t wait
Yeah love remembers

You might convince yourself
There’s shelter in a bottle
For a while there it might numb the pain
But when it hits you, then it hits you
That love’s still gone and you’ll be wishin’
That you’d poured it down the drain
‘Cause love remembers

The taste of cotton candy lip gloss
On the lips of a long kiss
And the plans they made together
Yeah love remembers
To feel the fingertips
Running through soakin’ wet hair
On the bank after a midnight swim
Yeah love remembers

Yeah love remembers
The smell of a summer day
Lying in a hammock over fresh cut grass
And the promise of forever
Love remembers
The sound of the pouring rain
Beating down on the top of a car
On the side of the road
Where it couldn’t wait
Yeah love remembers

Love remembers
(Love remembers)
(The sound of the pouring rain)
Beating down on the top of a car
(On the side of the road)
(Where it couldn’t wait)

13. No Air – Jordin Sparks (Feat. Chris Brown)

It is true that when you are truly attached to someone, their absence feels suffocating. This is the perfect song that represents just that.

Lyrics

Tell me how I’m supposed to breathe with no air?

If I should die before I wake
It’s ’cause you took my breath away
Losing you is like living in a world with no air, oh

I’m here alone, didn’t wanna leave
My heart won’t move, it’s incomplete
Is there a way I could make you understand?

But how
Do you expect me, to live alone with just me?
‘Cause my world revolves around you
It’s so hard for me to breathe

Tell me how I’m supposed to breathe with no air?
Can’t live, can’t breathe with no air
That’s how I feel whenever you ain’t there
There’s no air, no air
Got me out here in the water so deep
Tell me how you gon’ be without me?
If you ain’t here I just can’t breathe
There’s no air, no air
No air air, No air air

I walked, I ran, I jumped, I flew right off
The ground and float to you
There’s no gravity to hold me down, for real

But somehow I’m still alive inside
You took my breath but I survived
I don’t know how but I don’t even care

So how do you expect me to live alone with just me?
‘Cause my world revolves around you
It’s so hard for me to breathe

Got me here out in the water so deep

Tell me how you goin’ be without me?

If you ain’t here I just can’t breathe

There’s no air, no air
No air air, no air air

14. Long Distance – Brandy

This song perfectly captures the pain experienced in a long-distance relationship. You wish to be with no one but the one you love.

henever You Come Around

Lyrics

There’s only so many songs that I can sing to pass the time
And I’m running out of things to do to get you off my mind, oh
All I have is this picture in a frame (oh, ah)
That I hold close to see your face every day

With you is where I’d rather be
But we’re stuck where we are
It’s so hard, we’re so far
This long distance is killin’ me
I wish that you were here with me
But we’re stuck where we are
It’s so hard, we’re so far
This long distance is killin’ me

It’s so hard, it’s so hard, where we are, where we are
You’re so far, this long distance is killin’ me
It’s so hard, it’s so hard, where we are, where we are
You’re so far, this long distance is killin’ me

Now the minutes feel like hours
And the hours feel like days (whoa, oh)
While I’m away (away)
You know right now I can’t be home (ah)
But I’m comin’ home soon (ah)
Coming home soon (ah)
All I have is this picture in a frame (ah)
That I hold close to see your face every day.

With you is where I’d rather be (where I’d rather be)
But we’re stuck where we are (oh, oh)
It’s so hard (oh, ah), we’re so far (oh, ah)
This long distance is killin’ me
I wish that you were here with me (you were here with me)
But we’re stuck where we are (ohh)
It’s so hard (oh, ah), we’re so far (oh, ahh)

Can you hear me crying?
Oh (oh ah, oh ah)
Can you hear me crying? (oh, ah)
Oh (oh ah, oh ah)
Can you hear me crying? (oh, ah)

Oh (oh ah, oh ah)
Oh, woah (oh, ah)
Oh, no (oh ah, oh, ah)

With you is where I’d rather be (where I’d rather be), whoa
(But we’re stuck where we are) oh
(It’s so hard) so hard (we’re so far), so far
This long distance is killin’ me
I wish that you are here with me (you are here with me)
(But we’re stuck where we are) stuck where we are, so hard, so far
This long distance is killin’ me

There’s only so many songs that I can sing to pass the time

15. I’m Missing You – Bobby Tinsley

When you’re in love, even a few days of separation feels unbearable? Maybe this song could keep you warm on lonely, cold winter nights.

Lyrics

Ohh babe… Ohh babe…
The nights are long,
My days are cold,
Without the warmth you provide me when I hold,
You in my arms, feels so long ago, When you were there… I
Think a teardrop just fell down.
I really wanna come to see you, I really really wish I could,
Maybe in a couple weeks, It’s only a couple weeks…
But even know I get to,
It’s 14 days I gotta get trough
(It’s too many days babe)
And I’m really really missing you
And I miss, miss, Miss.I’m missing you
And I don’t know.How I’m gonna make it trough
But I gotta, gotta, stay strong for us two
I’m a man, It’s a job that I gotta do.
So I go outside and I fake a smile
But if they only knew, Just how many miles.
Were between love so true, I really couldn’t cope the way that we do (that we do.)
And I’m really really missing you,
You, you…
Baby when you’re near,
All of my visions clear.
But like a magic show, I blink and than you disapear.
And I frequently, Envision of it would be
To have you alone with me
Give me a moment so I can breathe .
Ok.
I really wanna come to see you, Baby I wish I could …(Wish I could.)
Maybe in a couple weeks (It’s only two weeks)
It’s only a couple weeks (But the problem is.)
Even though I get to.
It’s 14 long days that I don’t have you
(It’s too many days babe)
And I’m really really missing you.
And I miss, miss. Miss
I’m really really missing you.
And I don’t know, (I don’t know)
How I’m gonna make it through.
But I gotta, gotta … (Gotta)
Stay strong for us two. I’m a man,
It’s a job that I gotta do.
So I go outside and I fake a smile,
But if they only knew,
Just how many miles. (How many miles)
Were between love so true,
I really couldn’t cope the way that we do.
(The way that we do)
And I’m really really missing you (Missing you)
Cuz maybe one day babe,
Not too far away,
We can turn, all our dreams into memories.
(Not gonna be like this forever right?)
Baby we’ll have that home,
Stars stares, all that we share.
Too many nights, over the phone.
I really wanna come to see you (uhuh)
Baby you know I do.Maybe in a couple weeks (I’ll try)
It’s only a couple weeks (Can’t promiss.)
But even know I get to,
Still don’t wanna be away from you.
It’s too many days babe,
And I’m really really missing you.
And I miss, miss, Miss.I miss you.
And I don’t know (I don’t know)
How I’m gonna make it trough. But I gotta, gotta,
Hold strong for us two (strong for us two) I’m a man,
It’s a job that I gotta do.
So I go outside (I’ll go outside)
And I fake a smile (I’ll fake a smile)
But if they only knew,
Just how many miles.
Were between love so true, I really couldn’t cope the way that we do.
And I’m really really missing you…

16. Distance and Time – Alicia Keys

Waiting is a part of every long-distance relationship. And all that’s in your mind is the beautiful memories that you two shared.

Lyrics

This song is dedicated
To all the lovers who can’t be together
Separated by distance and time

You were always on my mind
All I do is count the days
Where are you now?

Know I never let you down
I will never go away

I really wish that you would stay but what would we do
All the days that you’ve been gone I dream about you
And I anticipate the day that you will come home, home, home

No matter how far you are
No matter how long it takes him
Through distance and time
I’ll be waiting

And if you have to walk a million miles
I’ll wait a million days to see you smile
Distance and time, I’ll be waiting

Distance and time, I’ll be waiting
Will you take a train, to meet me where I am
Are you on your way?
And I will never do anything to hurt you
I’ll never live without you

I really wish that you would stay but what would we do
All the days that you’ve been gone I dreamed about you
And I anticipate the day that you will come home, home, home

No matter how far you are
No matter how long it takes him
Distance and time, I’ll be waiting
And if you have to walk a million miles
I’ll wait a million days to see you smile
Distance and time
I’ll be waiting

No matter how far you are
No matter how long it takes him
Through distance and time, I’ll be waiting
And you can walk a million miles
I’ll wait a million days to see you smile
Through distance and time, I’ll be waiting

Oh oh oh, oh
Oh oh oh, hey
Oh oh oh oh

I’ll be waiting
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Through distance and time
I’ll be waiting

You are always on my mind
All I do is count the days
Where are you now?

17. Ain’t No Mountain High Enough – Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell

You may not be there with the love of your life, but you want them to know you are there for them always. This song will convey your feelings for them.

Lyrics

Listen baby, ain’t no mountain high
Ain’t no valley low, ain’t no river wide enough baby
If you need me call me no matter where you are
No matter how far, don’t worry baby
Just call my name I’ll be there in a hurry
You don’t have to worry

‘Cause baby there ain’t no mountain high enough
Ain’t no valley low enough
Ain’t no river wide enough
To keep me from getting to you babe

Remember the day I set you free
I told you you could always count on me darling
From that day on, I made a vow
I’ll be there when you want me
Some way, somehow

‘Cause baby there ain’t no mountain high enough
Ain’t no valley low enough
Ain’t no river wide enough
To keep me from getting to you babe

Oh no darling
No wind, no rain
Or winter’s cold can stop me baby, na na baby
‘Cause you are my goal
If you’re ever in trouble
I’ll be there on the double
Just send for me, oh baby, ha

My love is alive (woo)
Way down in my heart
Although we are miles apart
If you ever need a helping hand
I’ll be there on the double
Just as fast as I can
Don’t you know that there

Ain’t no mountain high enough
Ain’t no valley low enough
Ain’t no river wide enough
To keep me from getting to you babe

Don’tcha know that there
Ain’t no mountain high enough
Ain’t no valley low enough
Ain’t no river wide enough
Ain’t no mountain high enough
Ain’t no valley low enough

18. A Thousand Miles – Vanessa Carlton

Have you ever missed someone and wondered if they miss you too? If yes, then you might understand why Vanessa Carlton is willing to cross a thousand miles just to see the one she loves.

Lyrics

Makin’ my way downtown
Walkin’ fast, faces pass and I’m homebound
Starin’ blankly ahead, just making my way
Makin’ a way through the crowd

And 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

It’s always times like these when I think of you
And I wonder if you ever think of me
‘Cause everything’s so wrong and I don’t belong
Living in your precious memory

‘Cause I’ll need you
And I’ll miss you
And now I wonder

If I could fall into the sky
Do you think time would pass me by?
Oh ’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

Makin’ my way downtown
Walkin’ fast, faces pass and I’m homebound
Starin’ blankly ahead, just making my way
Makin’ 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

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

19. I’m Gonna Be (500 Miles) – The Proclaimers

This song is the perfect reminder of someone special waiting for you. Someone for whom you’ll walk a thousand miles.

Lyrics

When I wake up, well I know I’m gonna be,
I’m gonna be the man who wakes up next you
When I go out, yeah I know I’m gonna be
I’m gonna be the man who goes along with you
If I get drunk, well I know I’m gonna be
I’m gonna be the man who gets drunk next to you
And if I haver up, yeah I know I’m gonna be
I’m gonna be the man who’s havering to you

But I would walk 500 miles
And I would walk 500 more
Just to be the man who walks a thousand miles
To fall down at your door

When I’m working, yes I know I’m gonna be
I’m gonna be the man who’s working hard for you
And when the money, comes in for the work I do
I’ll pass almost every penny on to you
When I come home (when I come home) well I know I’m gonna be
I’m gonna be the man who comes back home to you
And if I grow-old (when I grow-old) well I know I’m gonna be
I’m gonna be the man who’s growing old with you

But I would walk 500 miles
And I would walk 500 more
Just to be the man who walks a thousand miles
To fall down at your door
