Million Different Ways

You said to me that the distance is just too much,
It killed you, and you couldn`t handle it anymore,
But Baby, if only you would have listened when I said:
"There`s a million different ways we can do this."

You turned on your heels, walked away from us,
I became just another memory, another face,
And you pretended you didn`t care at all anymore,
Ignored my calls and never wrote back to me.

There was too much tension between us lately,
The fights had done it all in tearing us clean apart,
But I put everything I had into saving you and I,
Yet, you insisted on burning these bridges.

You can set flames to however many bridges you want,
But it`s still not enough to keep me from seeing you,
`Cuz there`s still roads and water leading the way for me,
And I can get there faster than you can walk away.

There`s a million different ways to help us out of here,
To become something so much more than this,
And there`s a million different ways to say these words,
But I chose the most practical: "I will love you forever."
