Mile Away Lyrics - This Is An Outrage! - Capital Lights

I'm a mile away from where I belong 

And I'm a mile away from home 

I'm lying awake at the thought of you gone 

And I'm a mile away from home 

On top of the world he thought 

Let down when he hit the spot 

Dead stare in the mirror as he drove 

Had room for growing up 

He got cold feet so he had to run 

To a city with a history of love 

Knowing she relies on me 

But I'm on my way to an unpredicted fall 

Feet under the covers now 

Lips sealed tight till I hear a sound 

The sound of a soon redeeming call 

I'm a mile away from where I belong 

And I'm a mile away from home 

I'm lying awake at the thought of you gone 

And I'm a mile away from home 

Now, I know I never dreamed to be a movie star 

But I'm hiding in the Hollywood hills 

I've learned regret from a coward's mouth 

Wouldn't let her know how I feel 

Held up and I'm stuck in line 

Can barely get around on the 405 

Headed downtown 

In a half-full automobile 

Now, but deep inside I see the light 

I'm a runaway victim left alone 

At night though you lay so far 

We both stare out at the same old stars 

Wishing for direction where to go 

I'm a mile away from where I belong 

And I'm a mile away from home 

I'm lying awake at the thought of you gone 

And I'm a mile away from home 

Oh, but I could never forget 

The guilty look in your eyes at the end 

I walk the line like a merry-go-round 

Thought I learned but I lost you again 

And all at once if the world stops spinning 

Maybe you could let me win 

Oh, but I could never forget 

The guilty look in your eyes at the end 

And I'm a mile away from where I belong 

And I'm a mile away from home 

I'm lying awake at the thought of you gone 

And I'm a mile away from home 

I'm a mile away from where I belong 

And I'm a mile away from home 

I'm lying awake at the thought of you gone 

And I'm a mile away from home 

I'm a mile away from where I belong 

And I'm a mile away from home 

I'm lying awake at the thought of you gone 

And I'm a mile away from home
