million miles
You took a part of me that I really miss I keep askin' myself how long can it go on like this You told yourself a lie, that's alright, I told myself one too Well I try to get closer but I'm still a million miles from you  You took the silver and you took the gold You left me standin' out in the cold People ask about you, I didn't tell 'em everything I knew Well, I try to get closer but I'm still a million miles from you  I'm driftin' in and out of dreamless sleep Throwin' out my memories in a ditch so deep I did so many things I never did intend to do And I try to get closer but I'm still a million miles from you  Well, I don't dare close my eyes and I don't dare wink Maybe in the next life I'll be able to hear myself think I feel like talkin' to somebody but I just don't know who Well, I try to get closer but I'm still a million miles from you  Rock me, pretty baby, rock me all at once Rock me for a little while and rock me for a couple a months You know honey I'll rock you too Well, I try to get closer but I'm still a million miles from you  Well, there's voices in the night tryin' to be heard I'm sittin' here listening to every mind-pollutin' word And I know, I know plenty of people put me up for a day or two Yes, I try to get closer but I'm still a million miles Yes, I try to get closer but I'm still a million miles from you
