Many years ago in a basement...
A Thousand Miles Away
Theres that haunting melody
As Im awake another night
This place can be a prison
Or a living paradise
And outside the rain is pouring
The wind is screaming pain
I may be thinking different
But my thoughts are all the same
Theres still your name
A thousand miles away
Theres still that place
A thousand miles away
Im there again
A thousand miles
I cant escape
The plane lifts off the ground
I look out on all the lights
And I know youre down there somewhere
Cause I couldnt change you mind
But looking back it was the best thing
Cause theres nothing for you here
Theres no Bloomingdales, no Tiffanys
And its cold for half the year
Around here theres a list
Of all the loving gifts you gave me
But the goodbye, our last kiss
The most precious one Im saving
Theres that haunting melody
As Im awake another night
This place can be a prison
Or a living paradise
And outside the rain is pouring
The wind is screaming pain
I may be thinking different
But my thoughts are all the same
Theres still your name
A thousand miles away
Theres still that place
A thousand miles away
Im there again
A thousand miles
I cant escape
The plane lifts off the ground
I look out on all the lights
And I know youre down there somewhere
Cause I couldnt change you mind
But looking back it was the best thing
Cause theres nothing for you here
Theres no Bloomingdales, no Tiffanys
And its cold for half the year
Around here theres a list
Of all the loving gifts you gave me
But the goodbye, our last kiss
The most precious one Im saving
