Lyrics
I never second guess myself
So I just packed my things
Had to try to find some place where I could breathe
So I went five hundred miles
On a brand new set of wings
Because I know there's something out here that I need.
And it's not the city lights
Not the change of pace
No matter how I try
It's these thoughts I can't erase.

(Chorus)
So forgive me if I sound a little different
When I confess I don't know what you're gonna say.
The only thing that gives me courage is the distance
So I'll just tell you from five hundred miles away.

I can't tell you what I felt
When I crossed that state line
And how the weight simply drifted off my chest.
And I couldn't see my troubles
I've finally left 'em all behind
I just called to say I wish you all the best.
No I'm not coming back
And I hate to bring you down
But I think you ought to know I fell in love
With this town.

(Chorus)

So just forgive me if I sound a little different
I'm just scared of all the things you're gonna say
The only thing that gives me courage is the distance
So I'll just tell you from five hundred miles away.
The only thing that give me courage is the distance
So I'll just tell you from five hundred miles away
I'll just tell you from five hundred miles away.
The Distance
