"Miles to Go (Before I Sleep)" and "Where Is the Love" were both written and produced by Corey Hart for Dion's 1997 album, Let's Talk About Love.[1] The "Miles to Go (Before I Sleep)" title is also the closing phrase of the 1923 poem "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening" by Robert Frost.[2] In the given phrase the term "sleep" denotes death. Hence, the poem's phrase "miles to go before I sleep" means that the there is a lot to achieve in life before death.[2] However Hart's lyrics are applied methaporically to love: "every breath I take for love, I could never be wrong, the journey is long, with miles to go before I sleep".[2]
