6000 Miles Lyrics by JDLmusic

6000 Miles

2018

[Intro]
I just wanna say that
You probably don't remember me very well but
I just wanna let you know that you're on my mind and that
I'm always thinking about you
And that uh hopefully maybe one day we will get to see each other again and...

[Hook]
We’re 6,000 miles
We’re so apart
I’ll put aside the distance
And keep you right in my heart

We're 6,000 miles
We’re that far apart
I don’t care how long it’s been
You’re always in my heart

[Verse 1]
I’ll never feel how it felt
To give your son away
But now that I am older
Think of you everyday

You’re always on my mind
I don’t know where I’d be
If it wasn’t for you
Wanting the best for me

I hope sometime you hear this
And put it all together
But that’s okay if you don’t
I love you no matter

I know I never knew you
Don’t have the words to say
But I love you mom and
Hope I see you one day (yeah)

Growing up I never knew the difference
Didn’t understand the life at which I was gifted
I never knew the sacrifice you made so i could live this
This ain’t the life that I bet you would have been predicting (no)

But I hope you see I’m doing well
I got a family who’s always here trying to help
I’m making my own path, continue to carve it out
One day the whole world will know what your sons about (yeah)

I'm tearing up thinking that we never see each other (nope)
Don’t even know my family, might have a sister or brother
If so, there’s no memories from one another
I didn’t get any years with my actual mother

My dad isn’t even in the picture
I bet you don’t know where he is but he isn’t with ya
I don’t blame it on you, but that really is the kicker
Or that my parents might not remember that I existed (yeah)

I went back a couple years ago
And they sent a letter to you but you never wrote (nope)
I don’t know if you got it, and that really soars my throat
But I did find what you left for me a simple a note

I read it over wish that I could hear your voice
And I know that giving me up was a brutal choice
The day we meet again I’ll be able to to rejoice
And listening to you speak will be a joyful noise

I can’t explain all that I will want to share
I will make sure to tell you everything throughout the years
Soon my heart will open up begin to repair
The day that we’re together God will have answered my prayers (yeah)

I’m sitting in my bedroom
Tears rolling down my face
When I think about you
My heart begins to race

And I will always love you mom
Don’t ever forget
And I’ll make sure that I see you
Eventually again

[Hook]
We're 6,000 miles
We're so far apart
I’ll put aside the distance
And keep you right in my heart

We're 6,000 miles
We're that far apart
I don’t care how long it’s been
You’re always in my heart

We're 6,000 miles
We're so far apart
I’ll put aside the distance
And keep you right in my heart

We're 6,000 miles
We're that far apart
I don’t care how long it’s been
You’re always in my heart

[Verse 2]
You might not wanna see me, I already know
You probably feel guilty because you let me go (yeah)
But mom I have no anger, you just didn’t see me grow
I can always tell you of every afterglow

I’m old enough now that I start to fear
That I might never see you again my eyes don’t clear
I grab a blanket and sit down to wipe away the tears
Just know you’re in my thoughts every day of every year (yeah)

I’m blessed to have a mom like you
Even though it took me time to understand it through
You knew that I was better off my life you could renew
I think that seeing you again is very overdue (yeah)

I’m shaking it’s hard to write all of these lines
Just thinking I wanna wrap my arms around you and just call you mine (I do)
Sit down around a table and just talk right as we dine
I pray God please let her know i’m here give her a sign

I missed you growing up but
Didn’t feel it till now (nope)
If I could see you for a minute
I could make you proud (yeah)

And I won’t lose my hope I’ll
Keep hoping for your presence
And if I don’t see you on earth
Maybe one day in heaven

I’ll run to you arms
Even if it takes while
I just wanna see your face
And look at you and smile
And that smile will last a mile
Eventually we will have to reconcile (yeah)

Mom I love you till the day I die
But hopefully I get the chance just to tell you hi
Or maybe see you as you going and wish you goodbye
I tell myself you are alive but that could be a lie (yeah)

I’m running fingers through my hair
Now my life is feeling cold and just very bare (it is)
All my emotions coming out in this song right here
I wanna write to you and make it real sincere

Dear mom
Sorry to put you through this pain (I'm sorry)
Know it’s not my fault but i wanna take the blame
I wish things were different but you might want them the same
Because the life I have is better since I left and came (yeah)
To America
The land of opportunity
The only down side
I don’t have my mom with me (nope)
What you did for me I dont think that I can repay
But hopefully i’ll get to see your face again one day

[Outro}
We're 6,000 miles
We're so far apart
I’ll put aside the distance
And keep you right in my heart

We're 6,000 miles
We're that far apart
I don’t care how long it’s been
You’re always in my heart

We're 6,000 miles
We're so far apart
I’ll put aside the distance
And keep you right in my heart

We're 6,000 miles
We're that far apart
I don’t care how long it’s been
You’re always in my heart

You're always in my heart
You're always in my heart
