Miles away

Avenged Sevenfold - Dear God

A lonely road, crossed another cold state line.
Miles away from those I love purpose hard to find.
While I recall all the words you spoke to me,
Can't help but wish that I was there
Back where I'd love to be, oh yeah.

Dear God the only thing I ask of you is
to hold her when I'm not around,
when I'm much too far away.
We all need that person who can be true to you,
But I left her when I found her
And now I wish I'd stayed.
Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired
I'm missing you again oh no.
Once again.

There's nothing here for me on this barren road.
There's no one here while the city sleeps,
and all the shops are closed.
Can't help but think of the times I've had with you.
Pictures and some memories will have to help me through, oh yeah.

Dear God the only thing I ask of you is
to hold her when I'm not around,
when I'm much too far away.
We all need that person who can be true to you,
But I left her when I found her
And now I wish I'd stayed.
Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired
I'm missing you again oh no.
Once again.

Some search, never finding a way.
Before long, they waste away.
I found you, something told me to stay.
I gave in, to selfish ways.
And how I miss someone to hold
when hope begins to fade.
