I wrote 'Miles Away' a few years ago after flipping through a book of photos of the Earth from space. Zack Hickman produced it and plays most of the instruments on the song. I didn’t quite know what to do with song, so I held on to it. Still, I really wanted it to see the light of day, so I’m put...
Miles Away Lyrics
Came into this world, I was lost not found
It did not hold me in its arms like it holds me now
So I dreamed myself a bird who could cross the waves
And I woke up just a man who was miles away
[Chorus]
Miles away, miles away, miles away, miles away
So I went to Cape Canaveral and I went to the moon
And I stayed up there for a year or two
Famous picture of me above the blue parade
A man a million miles up, still miles away
[Chorus]
Miles away, miles away, miles away, miles away
So I went back to Kansas, it was summertime
Brought flowers to my family by the riverside
At the end of his life, they said my father had changed
I suppose we could have been friends, but I was miles away
[Chorus]
Miles away, miles away, miles away, miles away
Honey, you don't belong in a place like this
With your long yellow hair and your hips
But the look in your eye is like the world from space
The way the sun hits off the water from miles away
[Chorus]
Miles away, miles away, miles away, miles away
Honey, can you leave your light on?
Honey, can you leave your light on?
Honey, can you leave your light on?
Honey, can you leave your light on?
I'm miles away, miles away
Miles away, miles away
