Lyrics

I tried too hard to hide it – my heart
I was bound to failure from the start
I was running away, I was gone to stay
There was no way you might find me
Looking for the truth in these miles

I tried too hard to forget my own troubled face
My success doomed us, though it seemed so safe
I had covered my eyes – made for a bumpy ride
Something inside just kept me from
Looking for the truth in these miles

These miles
Gifts from a lover unopened
These miles
Words from a good friend unspoken
These miles
Weigh on my sight like an omen
An omen

I tried so hard to love her, now here I am
Driving down this highway like I’m on the lam
But I’m not running away – no, I’m done with those days
Happy to say that I’m looking
Looking for the truth in these miles
Looking for the truth in these miles
