Laura Veirs
1,000 Miles Away
[Verse 1]
I’m out in the cold
I gaze through your window
The music’s on
I’m watchin' you sway
Just yesterday
In February’s dark
We watched the stars
Explode until daybreak

[Chorus]
How can you stand right there and be a thousand miles away?
A thousand miles away

[Verse 2]
I saw a light in your eyes
It was the animal kind
All fierce and bright
Now every color fades
I’m out in the snow
In your golden glow
I feel no heat
From my feet up to my face

[Chorus]
How can you stand right there and be a thousand miles away?
A thousand miles away
