Loriana Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Hey guys, been ages since I posted something here, but today I felt inspired to re-write the song lyrics to Vanessa Carlton's A Thousand Miles. I just need to express how I'm feeling and music/writing is the only way I know how. Hope you like it I guess lol. Riding the bus through town Driving fast Cars pass And I'm homebound Staring out of the window just making my way Making a way through life's ups and downs And I need something new I don't know what to do And now I wonder If I met you again on the street And let you talk to me Would my life start to become sweet Would we shine as bright as the stars in the sky? Cause I know I would walk a thousand miles if I could just see you tonight It's always times like these when I feel most alone Staring at the blank screen on my phone Cause I know this isn't who I want to be A girl of the past Only alive in your memory And I need something new I don't know what to do And now I wonder If I met you again on the street And let you talk to me Would my life start to become sweet Would we shine as bright as the stars in the sky? Cause I know I would walk a thousand miles if I could just see you tonight And I, I want a new life I I don't want to be a nobody I I want to be a somebody I do Riding the bus through town Driving fast Cars pass And I'm homebound Staring out of the window just making my way Making a way through life's ups and downs And I stillneed something new I stilldon't know what to do And now I wonder If I met you again on the street And let you talk to me Would my life start to become sweet Would we shine as bright as the stars in the sky? Cause I know I would walk a thousand miles if I could be there with you, right here, right now And I need something new I don't know what to do And now I wonder If I met you again on the street And let you talk to me Would my life start to become sweet Would we shine as bright as the stars in the sky? Cause I know I would walk a thousand miles if I could just see you tonight Link to comment

fenlauriautumn Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 When I sing it in my head, some of the words in your lyrics don't fit exactly with the tune if that makes sense? But other than that your lyrics brought a tear to my eye -very beautiful, and relateable ! Do you write like this in your spare time at all? For a job ? You're very talented I like your glasses btw -very retro! Link to comment

Yes I love to write in my spare time. And thank you, I don't actually wear glasses, it's a snapchat filter, but I felt like the glasses made me look more intelligent ha! Link to comment
