1,000 Miles Away - Jewel

It’s morning time, wonder where you are

wonder who you’re talking to

wonder if the sun has risen where you are

it’s morning time, i miss your hands on my skin

this bed’s too big without you

oh god, what do i do?

I’m a thousand miles away, and I’m lying next to you.

The sun shines golden, and I feel like my car

a little run down, a little beat up, maybe just a little green

maybe it’s my battery, maybe it’s my starter,

maybe my heart’s too weak

there’s just this feeling, thought I had to get going

got too scary, got too big, got to get out of here

but now i don’t know how to get home.

oh god, what do I do?

I’m a thousand miles away, and lying next to you.

Mama says take my vitamins,

daddy says «girl, don’t stay out so late»

sister says «there's other fishes in the sea»

but love is not a rational thing, and my heart is beyond advice

no, love is not a rational thing

oh god, what do I do?

I’m a thousand miles away, and lying next to you.

these fields stretch out like patchwork, on my granny’s quilt

she used to tell me that

«life is a series of strange and mysterious things

one minute you think you’re up, the next you find you’re down»

your mind says «girl, you gotta stick around»

but your heart says «I'm too weak in the knees»

oh god, what do I do?

I’m a thousand miles away, and lying next to you.
