Sab Star’s “How Many Miles Is Too Far” drifts between ache and acceptance, carried by a steady acoustic rhythm and soft, dreamy guitar leads that shimmer like light through fog. The song moves with a calm, reflective pulse, letting each line linger before the next wave of sound rolls in.
The lyrics explore the quiet exhaustion of trying to move on while someone remains present in your thoughts. Lines like “Wish you would stay awake / not stay away” repeat like a half-remembered memory, their simplicity giving them weight and poignancy. Each line cuts deep like a well crafted knife. By the time the song reaches “I’m lost, you’re found / you’re lost, I’m found,” it becomes a meditation on confusion, longing, and what feels like the never-ending nature of heartache.
There is a softness in Sab Star’s delivery that never feels dull or hollow. “How Many Miles Is Too Far” captures the space between holding on and letting go, a liminal moment where distance cannot heal and emotions echo longer than they should. It is a quiet, introspective journey that lingers well after the song ends.
