(Guitar solo)
(Verse 1)
I saw her once beneath the sky A fleeting glance a whispered sigh.
Her eyes, they told a story untold A love I never got to hold.
But she's a thousand miles away in someone else’s arms she’ll stay.
I’m just a shadow in her dream A love that's never what it seems.
(Pre-Chorus)
I reach out but she's not mine Caught in a moment I can’t define.
Her heart’s already claimed it’s clear And I’m left with a wish, a whispered prayer.
(Chorus)
She’s in his arms but I still see he kind of love that could have been with me.
Across the miles i feel the ache A love that’s real but just too late.
She’s the one but he holds her tight While I fade in the echoes of the night.
(Verse 2)
I watch her laugh through a screen of light A life she lives just out of sight.
I know I can’t change what’s meant to be But in my heart it’s her I’ll always see.
She talks about him and I can’t pretend That I’m okay with just being her friend.
The space between us is far too wide but still i can’t push these feelings aside.
(Chorus)
She’s in his arms but I still see he kind of love that could have been with me.
Across the miles i feel the ache A love that’s real but just too late.
She’s the one but he holds her tight While I fade in the echoes of the night.
(Guitar solo)
(Bridge)
Maybe someday our paths will cross But until then I’ll bear this loss.
For now, I’ll love her from afar,A distant dream, a fading star.
(Chorus)
She’s in his arms but I still see he kind of love that could have been with me.
Across the miles i feel the ache A love that’s real but just too late.
She’s the one but he holds her tight While I fade in the echoes of the night.
(Outro)
So I’ll keep dreaming though it’s hard to cope A love that’s lost but I can’t let go.
She’ll never be mine and that’s the truth But I’ll always carry her in my youth.
(Guitar outro)
