Jim Boyd - A Million Miles Away lyrics

When I see your face in the firelight

I wonder how the fire started

Some people might call you pretty

But I'd call you broken-hearted

And I've got a map in my pocket

That has your name written in blue

I'll follow you like a river

If you just guide me through

Chorus:

Let's rent a car and drive it,

A million miles away

Let's start a fire and survive it.

A million miles away

Let's steal the sun and hide it,

A million miles away

Let's find a storm and ride it,

A million miles away

When I see you dance in the barlight

I wonder when the song'll end

Some people might think you graceful

But I think you're brittle and bent

And I've got a map in my pocket

Where every town is named for you

I'll make a stop in all of 'em

If you just guide me through

Chorus

When I see you read by the candlelight

I wonder if you'll hurt your eyes

Some people like happy endings

But I've always liked a surprise

And I've got a map here in my pocket

That shows where Lucifer fell

Ya I'll fall from Heaven

If you guide me through Hell
