1000 Miles Away

Estimated time of arrival 9:30 a.m.

Been up before the sun and now I'm tired before I even begin (Now you're flying)

I got so much work in front of me (Really flying)

It stretches out far as the eye can see

I can see

Spend half my life in airports doing crosswords or attempting to sleep

And when the bar is open then you'll often find you're warming a seat (Now you're flying)

I never find a place where I can stay (Really flying)

I'd rather be a thousand miles away

Thousand miles away

Working for yourself sometimes ain't all that it's cracked up to be

It can be as lonely at the top as at the bottom of that corporate tree (Now you're flying)

I'm told I'm goin' places, who can say? (Really flying)

I might arrive, but I'll be gone the very next day

I must be on my way

A thousand miles away

Promised to myself someday, I'd take the time and try to make sense

Out of all those opportunities I've lost from trying to sit on the fence (Now you're flying)

Right now, I've got no time for yesterday (Really flying)

Yesterday's a thousand miles away

Thousand miles away (A thousand miles away)

Thousand miles away

A thousand miles away (Now you're flying)

What was that, that you were trying to say?

I guess I was a thousand miles away (A thousand miles away)

Sing it again (A thousand miles away)

Sing it again (A thousand miles away)

Sing it again (A thousand miles away)

Sing it again
