Jackson Browne Miles Away Lyrics

Miles Away Lyrics

I got my head down between my knees
I got my back against this bedroom wall
I hear my voice saying baby please
But I know you don`t hear me call

You`re staring at that far horizon
I don`t even know why you stay
It`s like you`re already miles and miles away

We got this life so far turned around
We only talk about what happened last
We try to move ahead but we`re losing ground
To the heartache and the pain of the past

Staring at that far horizon
I don`t even know why I stay
You`re already miles and miles away.

Miles Away
From these sad deliberations
From a life in disarray
And all these recriminations
And these stones all in your passway

You got this rage choking up your voice
And you`re behaving like an orphan child
I want to be your friend but I got no choice
Than to fight when you`re so mean and wild

Staring at that far horizon
I don`t even know why you stay
It`s like you`re already miles and miles away

Miles Away
From these sad deliberations
From the innocence betrayed
The abandoned expectations
And the stones that we have laid
