Miles Away Songtext
von Phil Cook

Miles away
I was miles away
And I was miles away
I know I′m next to you, babe
But I was miles away

What did you say?
What did you say?
Tell me, what did you say?
I wasn't listenin′, babe
Tell me, what did you say?

I know you waited (when will you come back home?)
Where I wanna be (always been away so long)
I know you're ready (I'm always on my own)
You know I wanna be

Driftin′ away
You′re always driftin' away, yeah, yeah
Driftin′ away
Although I'm callin′ your name
But you keep driftin' away


Ain′t it a shame?
Ain't it a shame?
Ain't it a shame?
The way I kiss your face
And yet you′re miles away

I′m out here waitin' (when will you come back home?)
Where could you be? (I been away too long)
You′re always runnin' (you′re always on your own)
Come stand by me

Where was I goin'?
Where have I gone?
Where did I get to?
Left the light turned on

I didn′t mean to
I wanted to stay
But I just wandered
Miles away

Miles away
I was miles away
I was miles away
I know I'm next to you, baby (thought I was next to you, baby)
I was miles away


I'm out here waitin′ (when will you come back home?)
Where could you be? (I been away too long)
You′re always runnin' (you′re always on your own)
Come stand by me (I been away too long)

Yeah, I'm out here waitin′ (when will you come back home?)
Where could you be? (I been away too long)
You're always runnin′ (you're always on your own)
Oh, come stand by me (I been away too long)

I'm out here waitin′ (when will you come back home?)
Where could you be? (I been away too long)
You′re always runnin' (you′re always on your own)
Come stand by me (I been away too long)

I'm out here waitin′ (when will you come back home?)
Where, where, where could you be? (I been away too long)
You're always runnin′ (you're always on your own)
Oh, come stand by me (I been away too long)

Yeah, I'm out here waitin′ (when will you come back home?)
Where could you be? (I been away too long)
You′re always runnin' (you′re always on your own)
Come stand by me
