Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Time on your side that will never end
The most beautiful thing you can ever spend
But you work in a shirt with your name tag on it
Driftin' apart like a plate tectonic
[Verse 2]
It don't matter to me
'Cause all I wanted to be
Was a million miles from here
Somewhere more familiar
[Verse 3]
Too much time spent draggin' the past up
I didn't see you, not lookin' when I messed up
Settling down in your early twenties
Sucked more blood than a backstreet dentist
[Verse 4]
It don't matter to me
'Cause all I wanted to be
Was a million miles from here
Somewhere more familiar
[Verse 5]
And oh my God, I can't believe it
I've never been this far away from home
And oh my God, I can't believe it
I've never been this far away from home
And oh my God, I can't believe it
I've never been this far away from home
And oh my God, I can't believe it
I've never been this far away from home
[Verse 6]
Great rulers make for a greater glory
The only thing growin' is our history
Knock me down I'll get right back up again
I'll come back stronger than a powered up Pac Man
[Verse 7]
It don't matter to me
'Cause all I wanted to be
Was a million miles from here
Somewhere more familiar
[Verse 8]
And oh my God, I can't believe it
I've never been this far away from home
And oh my God, I can't believe it
I've never been this far away from home
[Verse 9]
And oh my God, I can't believe it
I've never been this far away from home
And oh my God, I can't believe it
I've never been this far away from home
[Verse 10]
And oh my God, I can't believe it
I've never been this far away from home
And oh my God, I can't believe it
I've never been this far away from home
[Verse 11]
And oh my God, I can't believe it
I've never been this far away from home
And oh my God, I can't believe it
I've never been this far away from home
