Mile away


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 warming 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

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 cowards 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

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 in
Oh but I could never forget the guilty look in your eyes at the end

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 
The lyrics MILE AWAY of CAPITAL LIGHTS is also present in the album This is an outrage (2008)
