I remember the leaves were gone
And burning embers make for the sweetest songs
Yeah, I can see the two of us living on dreams and dust
Loving you was so unreal that I remember

She was just a gypsy girl
I was just a chance I wish she'd take
Got into a lonely world, trying to belong
Love is like a string of pearls
While I was waiting for the strand to break
From a thousand miles away
Somehow we made it home
Ahh ahh ahh ahh ahh
Just a thousand miles away
Ahh ahh ahh ahh ahh

Wayward travelers, stars get crossed
Find out only after we were never lost
I can see the two of us living on dreams and dust
Loving you was so unreal that I remember

She was just a gypsy girl
I was just a chance I wish she'd take
Got into a lonely world, trying to belong
Love is like a string of pearls
While I was waiting for the strand to break
From a thousand miles away
Somehow we made it home
Ahh ahh ahh ahh ahh
Just a thousand miles away
Ahh ahh ahh ahh ahh

Just a thousand miles away
Ahh ahh ahh ahh ahh
Just a thousand miles away
Ahh ahh ahh ahh ahh
Just a thousand miles away

She was just a gypsy girl
I was just a chance I wish she'd take
Got into a lonely world, trying to belong
Love is like a string of pearls
While I was waiting for the strand to break
From a thousand miles away
Somehow we made it home
Ahh ahh ahh ahh ahh
Just a thousand miles away
Ahh ahh ahh ahh ahh

Just a thousand miles away
Ahh ahh ahh ahh ahh
Just a thousand miles away
Ahh ahh ahh ahh ahh
Just a thousand miles away
Just a thousand miles away
