Hi, I'm Alyanna () and I'm new to this community. I will sing the song “A Thousand Miles” by Vanessa Carlton as my first entry for Hive #openmic themed “UNDER MY SKIN, Week 258. I preferred this song because it implies a profound message about longing for someone. Have you ever felt like this before? If yes, I believe you can relate to this song. The message of this song is very intriguing because it doesn't only emphasize missing. But it also emphasizes how much a person can do for someone he/she loves just to see or be with him. Thank you for dropping by, and enjoy listening to my performance.
A Thousand Miles by Vanessa Carlton
Makin' my way downtown, walkin' fast
Faces pass and I'm homebound
Starin' blankly ahead, just makin' my way
Makin' a way through the crowd
And I need you
And I miss you
And now I wonder
If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass me by?
'Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles
If I could just see you
Tonight
It's always times like these when I think of you
And I wonder if you ever think of me
'Cause everything's so wrong and I don't belong
Livin' in your precious memory
'Cause I'll need you
And I'll miss you
And now I wonder
If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass me by?
Oh, 'cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles
If I could just see you
Tonight
And I, I don't wanna let you know
I, I drown in your memory
I, I don't wanna let this go
I, I don't
Makin' my way downtown, walkin' fast
Faces pass and I'm homebound
Starin' blankly ahead, just makin' my way
Makin' a way through the crowd
And I still need you
I still miss you
And now I wonder
If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass us by?
'Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles
If I could just see you, oh, oh
If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass me by?
'Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles
If I could just see you
If I could just hold you
Tonight
