Million Miles - Bonnie Raitt

You took a part of me That I really miss

I keep askin' myself

«How long can it go on like this?»

You told yourself a lie

That’s all right, I told myself one, too

Well, I try to get closer,

But I’m still a million miles from you

You took the silver

You took the gold

You left me standin' out in the cold

People ask about you

I didn’t tell them everything I knew

Well, I try to get closer,

But I’m still a million miles from you

I’m driftin' in and out

Of dreamless sleep

Somewhow my memory’s in a ditch

A ditch so deep

I did some many things

I never did intend to do And I try to get closer,

But I’m still a million miles from you

Well, I don’t dare close my eyes

And I don’t dare wink

Maybe in the next life,

I’ll be able to hear myself think

I feel like talkin' to somebody

I just don’t know who

Well I try to get closer,

But I’m still a million miles from you

Rock me pretty baby

Rock me all at once

Rock me for a little while

And rock me for a couple of months

You know, honey, I’ll rock you, too

Well I try to get closer,

But I’m still a million miles from you

Well, there’s voices in the night

Tryin' to be heard

I’m sittin' here listenin' to every

Mind pollutin' word

And I know, I know plenty of people

That’d put me up for a day or two

Yes, I try to get closer,

But I’m still a million miles

Yes, I try to get closer,

But I’m still a million miles from you
