| The moon has lost its glow
 | 
| The sky is black
 | 
| I’ll never be free I know
 | 
| When I look back
 | 
| I remember you have gone
 | 
| And I feel the pain comin' on
 | 
| And I gotta stop my heart from cryin'
 | 
| Though I left the best part of me behind
 | 
| Now, am 500 miles from yesterday
 | 
| And you have gone away
 | 
| Oh baby, you’ve gone away
 | 
| The stars don’t shine for me
 | 
| The way it’s been
 | 
| Yours is the only face I see
 | 
| I’m lost again
 | 
| I remember you have gone
 | 
| And I feel the pain comin' on
 | 
| And I gotta stop my heart from cryin'
 | 
| Though I left the best part of me behind
 | 
| I am 500 miles from yesterday
 | 
| And you have gone away
 | 
| And I just can’t go on without your love
 | 
| I’ve burned my bridges behind me
 | 
| I’ll go where yesterday won’t find me
 | 
| And maybe the end of my sorrow
 | 
| Is only as far as tomorrow
 | 
| I’m 500 miles from yesterday
 | 
| And baby, you’ve gone away
 | 
| Yeah, baby, you’ve gone away
 | 
| I am 500 miles from yesterday
 | 
| And baby, you’ve gone away
 | 
| Ah, baby, you’ve gone away
 | 
| I am 500 miles from yesterday
 | 
| And baby, you’ve gone away
 | 
| Ah, baby, you’ve gone away |
