Miles from Our Home

Miles from my home
Pale as milk, bold as a promise

You're miles from your home
Miles from our home, miles from our home
I'm miles from my home
And these are days of slow boats and false starts
You will be the one to set them both free
When will we hold you in our arms?
And yet people keep saying
The sky is still as a spinning top

This whole day will tumble and out the night will spill
If I could just connect all these dots
The truth would tumble like a cynic vexed by love
The moon hangs like a question mark
We're miles from our home
Miles from our home
Miles from your home

But that's where I want to be
For you and you for me
And yet people will tell you

We're miles from our home
Miles from our home
Miles from our home, miles from our home
Shooting stars drop like burning words from above
Out here fumbling, out here waiting
When will you share these sights with us?
And people will tell them
Yeah, and people will tell them

If I can just reach the crest of that hill

I met you again in my sleep last night
Out there searching

Hearts remain under lock and key
