How Many Miles Lyrics by Edguy

Vain Glory Opera

1998

Oh, yeah

Watching a face and a smile and a light
When you're walking alone in the street
I know your look always gives you the might
Many miles from your ass to your feet

And I dream - what I've seen
Is what I want it to be - selfmade reality

How many miles to the gate of reality
How many steps left go to my dreams
How many miles to the land where my dreams come true
Dreams which come true just have died

Look like a queen but you talk like a pawn
And I know you're a fool in disguise
Godfather, tell me, how to carry on
Blinded by fantasies of lies

And I dream - what I've seen
Is what I want it to be - selfmade reality

How many miles to the gate of reality
How many steps left go to my dreams
How many miles to the land where my dreams come true
Dreams which come true just have died

I see your smile, a golden masquerade
And I know my dream, it will be my fate
Time has stolen my fantasy
Cause it's become a pale reality

How many miles to the gate of reality
How many steps left go to my dreams
How many miles to the land where my dreams come true
Dreams which come true just have died
