Makin' my way downtown, walkin' fast Faces pass and I'm homebound Starin' blankly ahead, just makin' my way Makin' a way through the crowd And I need you And I miss you And now I wonder If I could fall Into the sky Do you think time Would pass me by? 'Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles If I could just see you Tonight It's always times like these when I think of you And I wonder if you ever think of me 'Cause everything's so wrong and I don't belong Livin' in your precious memory 'Cause I'll need you And I'll miss you And now I wonder If I could fall Into the sky Do you think time Would pass me by? Oh, 'cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles If I could just see you Tonight And I, I don't wanna let you know I, I drown in your memory I, I don't wanna let this go I, I don't Makin' my way downtown, walkin' fast Faces pass and I'm homebound Starin' blankly ahead, just makin' my way Makin' a way through the crowd And I still need you I still miss you And now I wonder If I could fall Into the sky Do you think time Would pass us by? 'Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles If I could just see you, oh, oh If I could fall Into the sky Do you think time Would pass me by? 'Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles If I could just see you If I could just hold you Tonight

A “A Thousand Miles” foi originalmente batizada de “Interlude”, antes de ganhar o título que ficou famoso.
A canção foi produzida por Curtis Schweitzer e Ron Fair, e lançada como single de estreia do álbum Be Not Nobody em 2002.
A música alcançou o top 5 no Billboard Hot 100, atingindo o número cinco, e é o único single de Vanessa Carlton que entrou no top‑10 da parada americana.
No cenário internacional, “A Thousand Miles” chegou ao número 1 na Austrália, entrou na top 5 na Irlanda e no top 10 em países como Reino Unido, França, Itália e Holanda.
O tema da faixa foi inspirado por um crush que Carlton tinha por um estudante de Juilliard, um futuro ator famoso, que ela conheceu na School of American Ballet e nunca conseguiu falar devido à timidez.
