Miles Away

Lyrics

[Verse 1] And a cool, cool rain comes down On a world burned by the sun And the moon arises like a child And the moment is undone And the stars never say what they see As the moon flirts with shadows it makes Through the fallen trees Some would wait for the morning light But I fall asleep 'til I'm safe In the arms of night [Interlude] Yeah [Verse 2] Let the darkness roll in Let it wipe the light away In the distance, always calling Morpheus, he beckons play Still the morning is pre-ordained But I believe light is the source of all of our pain It reveals our smallest sins But dark covers all and will always take you [Chorus] Armed and gunning, I've been running Always just before the day In the distance, day is dawning But I'm already miles away, miles away, yeah-yeah [Verse 3] In the night there's wonder Always there for you to see In the light of morning Visions fade and dreams can flee With the darkness the night forgives Covers our scars and lets The lost souls live And the morning's a distant fear But if we move fast they'll never find us [Chorus] Armed and gunning, I've been running Through a world that's in decay Let them thunder stare and wonder Cause I'm already miles away, miles away, yeah Oooh, miles away [Guitar Solo] [Chorus] I've been running, armed and gunning Always just before the day In the distance, day is dawning But I'm already miles away [Outro] Miles away, yeah, yeah-yeah Miles, miles away Miles away Miles, miles away, ooh yeah Away, away, away And the rain comes down
