A Million Miles Away (Live At The Hammersmith Odeon, 18th January 1977)

A Million Miles Away

Here we lay face to face once again

Silence cuts like a knife as we pretend

And I'm wondering who will be the first

To say what we both know

We're just holding on to could have beens

And we should be letting go

It feels like you're a million miles away

As you're lying here with me tonight

I can't even find the words to say

I can find a way to make it right

And we both know that the story's ending

We play the part but we're just pretending

And I can't hide the tears

'Cause even though you're here

It feels like you're a million miles away

Away

Was it me or was it you that broke away

For what we were

Is like a season love is change

And every time I think about it

It tears me up inside

Like the rivers of emotion

But I got no more tears to cry

It feels like you're a million miles away

As you're lying here with me tonight

I can't even find the words to say

I can find a way to make it right

And we both know that the story's ending

We play the part but we're just pretending

And I can't hide the tears

'Cause even though you're here

It feels like you're a million miles away

Away

We can try to talk it over

But we walked that road before

While our song is playing its last note

We both know for sure

That it's time to close that door

It feels like you're a million miles away

As you're lying here with me tonight

I can't even find the words to say

I can find a way to make it right

And we both know that the story's ending

We play the part but we're just pretending

And I can't hide the tears

'Cause even though you're here

It feels like you're a million miles away

A million miles away
