Miles Away

I took a trip up the west coast LAX to SFO Was searching for a temp so low And a summer high The Sun swayed and set slow Made waves with some friends I know Got lost in the ebb and flow Of the drifting tide (And I) I didn't ever want to come down From that west coast rush and summer high And easy, peaceful sense of time (I felt so alive) Now I'm alone when I'm back home It's cold and old But in my mind I I am Miles and miles Away Pretty pretty girls on two wheels Dolores Heights and a laid back feel We sat and drank for a while until The city came alive We were smoking with strangers We were dancing with the lights on I was singing to "The Angels" See that's my favorite X song In my mind I'm miles away When the buzz ain't like it was Well then it's time for a change Just a subtle change A tongue full of only tomorrow's Will never quench your thirst for today So what do you say we take a trip miles away I don't ever want to come down From this west coast rush and summer high And easy, peaceful sense of time (I feel so alive) At the moment any place I go Is beautiful Because in my mind I I am Miles and miles Away
