Lyrics Million Miles - Bonnie Raitt

You took a part of me that I really miss
I keep askin′ myself how long it can go on like this
You told yourself a lie, that's alright, I told myself one too
I′ve tried 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′ve tried to get closer but I'm still a million miles from you.
I′m driftin' in and out of dreamless sleep
Throwin′ all my memories in a ditch so deep
Did so many things I never did intend to do
Well, I've tried to get closer but I′m still a million miles from you.
I need your love so bad, turn your lamp down low
I need every bit of it for the places that I go
Sometimes I wonder 'til it's just what it′s all coming to
Well, I′ve tried 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
Feel like talkin' to somebody but I just don′t know who
Well, I've tried 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, rock me for a couple of months
And I′ll rock you too
I′m tryin' 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 listening to every mind-pollutin' word
I know plenty of people put me up for a day or two
Yes, I'm tryin′ to get closer but I′m still a million miles
Yes, I've tried to get closer but I′m still a million miles from you.
