Miles Away

Wheels keep on rollin', mindless of our flight
As towns lie in slumber, we fade into the night
The cities so familiar, are like a long lost friend
With open arms they shelter me and bring me home to them

And we're miles away, always miles away
Rollin' on down the highway, livin' for the day
Seems I'm always miles away

Just outside of Memphis where rock 'n roll began
We say a prayer for Elvis, then on the road again
The mind begins to wander as memories unfold
The music on the radio reminds us of our homes

And we're miles away, always miles away
Rollin' on down the highway, livin' for the day
Seems I'm always miles away

Yeah, yeah

Sometimes it seems the road will never end
Sometimes it seems my only friend, yeah, yeah, yeah
What will tomorrow tell, I just can't say today
Because I'm always miles away, miles away

The boy I left at home took his first steps today
I'll watch him on the video before I leave to play

'Cause we're miles away, always miles away
Rollin' on down the highway, livin' for the day
Seems I'm always miles and miles away
Always miles away

Oh yeah, all of my life is rollin', livin' just to play
Seems I'm always miles away, yeah
Seems I'm always miles away
Seems I'm always miles away, miles away
