A Million Miles

by Miranda Dickinson

about

Written on a Monday morning, working in an office job I hated, dreaming of what else could be possible!

lyrics

Ask me on a Monday
Where I'd like my future to be
I will tell you one thing
Hope it's a million miles from here
Could be lying on a beach
Could be staring at the sea
Don't care where you take me
As long as it's far away from here, from here

Feel I'm going nowhere
Lost within the 9 to 5
Trapped in endless circles
Forgot what it means to be alive
Could be travelling the world
Could be running wild and free
Don't care where you take me
As long as it's far away

Try to make a living
But my soul just isn't in it

Cos I should be a million miles from here
I should be a million miles away
I should be a million miles from here
I should be a million miles away
And I should be a million miles from here
I should be a million miles away
I should be a million miles from here
I should be a million miles

Tired of pushing paper
Counting hours until I can leave
Feel I'm going under
Feel life ebb away from me
Could be walking in the sun
Could be following a dream
Don't care where you take me
As long as it's far away

Do my best to win
But I don't know where to begin

Because I should be a million miles from here
I should be a million miles away
I should be a million miles from here
I should be a million miles away
And I should be a million miles from here
I should be a million miles away
I should be a million miles from here
I should be a million miles

Million miles away

Feel I'm going nowhere
Lost within the 9 to 5
Trapped in endless circles
Forgot what it means to be alive
Could be travelling the world
Could be running wild and free
Don't care where you take me
As long as it's far away
From here

Take me far away
Where I can find myself again
Take me to where I want to be

And I should be a million miles from here
I should be a million miles away
I should be a million miles from here
I should be a million miles

Take me a million miles away
A million miles

So take me far away
Where I can find myself again
Take me to where I want to be
