A Mile Away

[Verse 1]
A mile away, I can see the city lights
Shinin' up the coast like diamonds sparkilin' in your eyes
A mile away, there's a spot out on the beach
Where the midnight tide don't reach
Yeah that's where we'd be

[Chorus]
But you're still in my head and in my bed
Afraid to say what should be said
Both of us alone here in this room
You still walk the same old halls
You still haunt the same old walls
Dancin' like a flame around the truth
And I'm right next to you
A mile away

[Verse 2]
A mile way, there's a bar where I could sit
And let the whiskey burn you off my lips
And kill what's left of it

[Chorus]
But you're still in my head and in my bed
Afraid to say what should be said
Both of us alone here in this room
You still walk the same old halls
You still haunt the same old walls
Dancin' like a flame around the truth
And I'm right next to you
A mile away

[Bridge]
Ain't nothin' for a car, but when it comes to a broken heart
It's just too far, yeah it's just too far

[Chorus]
You're still in my head and in my bed
Afraid to say what should be said
Both of us alone here in this room
You still walk the same old halls
You still haunt the same old walls
Dancin' like the flame around the truth
And I'm right next to you
A mile away

[Outro]
A mile away
