Miles Behind Me Lyrics

Fading out of sight into the back of your mind
All this water under the bridge everything comes sneaking back
And we didn't talk after that

Nobody saw you fall
nobody saw you fall
nobody saw you fall miles behind me

Things that we worried about then when patience had run thin
Laughed when we wanted to hide on different sides of the line
We went to the end of the night

Nobody saw you fall
nobody saw you fall
nobody saw you fall miles behind me

Familiar roads unrecognizable turns seem to be dead ends
In tiny rooms out of view everything's born again and this time you're gonna win
At least that's what i tell myself

Nobody saw you fall
nobody saw you fall
nobody saw you fall miles behind me nobody saw you fall
nobody saw you fall and i don't care it's all miles behind me .

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

This is such a great song. It hits on one of the themes of the album: moving on. I love the FM synth sound.
