A Million Miles Away

Sailing like a driftwood on a windy bay
Sailing like a driftwood
So why must I sit here in the gloom

I'm a million miles away
Right now the blues flock to surround me
Sailing like a driftwood
Looking out on the deep blue sea
On a windy bay
Even the old bartender is as high as a steeple
Well, how does it look to you?
The joint is jumping all around me
And my mood is really not in style

I'm standing on the landing
But I'll break out after a while
I'm a million miles away
I'm a million miles away
The old bartender sleeps in the corner

Well, I'm a million miles

There's a song on the lips of everybody

This hotel bar has lost all its people
I'm a million miles, I'm a million miles
I'm a million miles away
Sailing like a driftwood on a windy bay
So why must I still be here?, I don't know, let me tell you
I'm a million miles away
The piano man has caught the last bus home

And there's no one there but me

Yes, I'm a million miles away

There's conversation overflowing
I fell hook, line and sinker
Sailing like a driftwood on a windy bay
On a windy bay
Yes, I'm a million miles away

So why tonight should I wear a frown?

Well, I'm a million miles away
I'm a million miles away
There's a smile all 'round the room
I'm a million miles away
Lost my captain and my crew
Why ask how I feel?
That's where you'll see me
