There was a time, looking through myself
Wanting to pretend
If I escaped, I could fill myself
I don't think you can
Been far and wide, but that hole inside
Never really leaves
I went away, what I really left
Left behind was me

It's telling me to be on my way home
Whoa, whoa, million miles away
Whoa, whoa, million miles away
I can't stay, I can't stay
Whoa, whoa, million miles away

Each passing day, every passing face
Seems like such a blur
I long to be home, silently
Lying next to her
Just to get back, by her side is all
All I need to be
I went away but what I really left
Left behind was me

I need to be getting on my way home
Whoa, whoa, million miles away
Whoa, whoa, million miles away
I can't take, I can't take
Whoa, whoa, million miles away

It's telling me to be on my way home!

I can't take, I can't take (million miles away)

(I cant' take, I can't take) whoa, whoa - million miles away
(Looking through myself, wanting to pretend)
(I cant' take, I can't take) whoa, whoa - million miles away
(I could fill myself, I don't think you can)

(I cant' take, I can't take) whoa, whoa - million miles away
(Every passing face seems like such a blur)
(I cant' take, I can't take) whoa, whoa - million miles away
(Home, silently, lying next to)
