You tried to run so that no one could desert you Always looking for the perfect place to hide You build up walls so that no one could ever hurt you And yet the loneliness made you cry Bridges all burned And no where to turn But to Heaven Miles and miles away Love saw you there Stretched out His hand to reach you Across the lonely ocean of your tears And He'll walk upon the waves If that's what it takes to save you Love doesn't have the heart to stay Miles and miles away He has the grace to cover any distance Always looking for the lost and weary soul And though He never stops offering forgiveness And to the one to run, a welcome home Sorrow, no more And Jesus is Lord Down from Heaven Miles and miles away Love saw you there He stretched out His hand to reach you Across the lonely ocean of your tears And He'll walk upon the waves If that's what it takes to save you Love doesn't have the heart to stay Miles and miles away Through the day or night Day or life, could ever separate us From the love the spans the ages Miles and miles away Love saw you there He stretched out His hand to reach you Across the lonely ocean of your tears And He'll walk upon the waves If that's what it takes to save you Love doesn't have the heart to stay Miles and miles away Love saw you there He stretched out His hand to reach you Even through the lonely ocean of your tears And He'll walk upon the waves If that's what it takes to save you Love doesn't have the heart to stay Miles and miles away Miles and miles away Miles and miles away
