The Maine - Miles Away Lyrics
I took a trip up the west coastLAX to SFOWas searching for a temp so lowAnd a summer highThe Sun swayed and set slowMade waves with some friends I knowI got lost in the ebb and flowOf the drifting tide(And I)I didn't ever want to come downFrom that West Coast rush and easy, peaceful sense of time(I felt so alive)Now I'm alone when I'm back homeIt's cold and oldBut in my mindII amMiles and milesAway(I'm miles away)Pretty, pretty girls on two wheelsDolores Heights and a laid back feelWe sat and drank for a while untilThe city came alive(We were)We were smoking with strangersWe were dancing with the lights onI was singing to "The Angels"See that's my favourite X song(And I)I didn't ever want to come downFrom that West Coast rush and summer highAn easy, peaceful sense of time(I felt so alive)Now I'm alone when I'm back homeIt's cold and oldBut in my mindII amMiles and milesAwayMiles away, mi-mi-mi-mi-mi miles away, mi-mi-mi-mi-miles awayWhen the buzz ain't like it wasWell then it's time for a changeJust a subtle changeA tongue full of only tomorrow'sWill never quench your thirst for todaySo what do you sayWe take a trip miles away(just a trip, a little trip)Lets take a trip miles awayI don't ever want to come downFrom that West Coast rush and summer highAn easy, peaceful sense of time(I feel so alive)At the moment any place I goIs beautifulBecause in my mindII amMiles and milesAway
