Bob Dylan – Million miles
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, mama, 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
Yes, the last thing you said before ya hit the street
Gonna find me a janitor to sweep me off my feet
I said, «That´s all right, mamma, you, you do what you gotta do»
Well, I´ve tried to get closer, 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 from you
