The Miles Away Girl Lyrics

She's always busy caring
'Cos that's all she's ever done
She's a thousand Florence Nightingales
All rolled up into one
And people take advantage
But she loves her fellow friend
With a slow, slow, count from ten

When strangers die around her
She still cries herself to sleep
And she seldom gets the chance
To pick the company she keeps
And the ring around her finger
Is a ring around her past
And a youth that couldn't last

When people ask if she's okay
She doesn't even answer
Her mind is set on auto think
For heaven knows how long
With the body of an angel
And the features of a child

She's miles and miles and miles and miles away
She's the miles away girl
She's the miles away girl
And she slaps miles and miles of smiles on every face
She's the miles away girl
She's the miles away girl
She's the miles away girl
Right next to me

She sends a man to slumberland
With just one little kiss
Her silence is refreshing
And her honesty is bliss
She's probably clairvoyant
But she never had the call
But that's not long at all

Her heads up with the clouds
Because she knows that's where she's heading
The good guys think she's different
The rest just think she's weird
She doesn't eat
She doesn't sleep
She's thinking all the while

She's miles and miles and miles and miles away
She's the miles away girl
She's the miles away girl
And she slaps miles and miles of smiles on every face
She's the miles away girl
She's the miles away girl
She's the miles away girl
Right next to me

And maybe you're the angel
I knew that you could be
Well that must be the reason you bring out the devil in me

And deep under the covers
An easy place to hide
And imagine the world isn't really going on outside

But you never seem to have any money
'Cos the decent people never get paid
But it's never really ever a problem
'Cos you can get miles away
Miles away
Miles away

She's miles and miles and miles and miles away
She's the miles away girl
She's the miles away girl
And she slaps miles and miles of smiles on every face
She's the miles away girl
She's the miles away girl
She's the miles away girl
Right next to me
