One step closer to you.
One step farther away.
Every time I try to reach out. You always seem to pull away. . .


(Chorus) Because! Every mile that I walk! Always seems to turn into another one. And every time you pull away, it just makes me feel your pain! Every mile that I walk, every footstep that brings me closer, brings me far away!


Every footstep that I count. . . makes my head fill with doubt. Why do I feel this way? Why does my mile not count. . . to you?


(Chorus) Because! Every mile, that I walk, every footstep that I count! Every breath I breathe! And every word I speak! Makes one mile. . . one footstep. . . one breath away. . . with every word I say...


Because! My mile! My mile! My mile! It counts. . . yes, it counts. . . Yes it does. . . (with every breath I take)
