I'm standing here by the tracks
Your gaze says more than any word, word, word
And a few quiet tears
Then I turn around again and I'm gone, gone, gone
Your brightest smile on a Polaroid
Even if miles separate us
You follow me in thought to every place, place, place
How much you miss me
How much time keeps us apart
And how fast it runs
It's really not that hard
I'm only a heartbeat away
And you're everything that remains
Even if every rope snaps
Even if our path splits
I just want you to know
Than just a heartbeat away
So many strange faces
Yet every moment I'm with you, you, you
All these colors fade
Then I imagine you were with me, me, me
Your brightest smile on a Polaroid
Even if miles separate us
And our world passes me by
How much you miss me
How much time keeps us apart
And how fast it runs
It's really not that hard
I'm only a heartbeat away
And you're everything that remains
Even if every rope snaps
Even if our path splits
I just want you to know
Only a heartbeat away
And if you ever lose yourself
Inside yourself I'm here
And if your world breaks
Only a heartbeat away
I'm only a heartbeat away
Only a heartbeat away
I'm only a heartbeat away
And no matter where you are
How much you miss me
How much time keeps us apart
And how fast it runs
It's really not that hard
I'm only a heartbeat away
And you're everything that remains
Even if every rope snaps
Even if our path splits
I just want you to know
Only a heartbeat away
