Five for Fighting - Ten Miles From Nowhere lyrics

How have you been

In the shape you were in

I'm suprised that you got where you're going

Who would believe

What a date you would be

If I knew I'd have thought about knowing

And in between now and the last time we met

I'd open the door if I met you again

And I swear that we'd be better/fair ever friends

From here until 10 miles from nowhere

What is that there

In your brown paper box

I can see that you kept all the memories we'd lost

I'd sworn it was you

Who was destined and gone

To the pressure of past undertakings

Had I had known that it might have been me

I might have returned a letter or three

Or gave you a call from the sanctuary

For the cracks in these walls tell time for a fee

From here until 10...

From now until 10...miles from nowhere
