A Million Miles Away

This hotel bar is full of people,

the piano man is really laying it down

Even the old bartender is a high as a steeple,

so why tonight should I wear a frown? (Yes, I'm a...)

The joint is jumping all around me

and my mood is really not in style

Right now the blues want to surround me

but I'll break out after a while

Well, I'm a million miles away,

I'm a million miles away

sailing like a driftwood on a windy bay

Why ask how I feel,

well, how does it look to you?

I feel hook line and sinker,

I lost my captain and my crew

I'm standing on the landing

and there's no one there but me

That's where you'll see me,

looking out on the deep blue see

There's a song on the lips of everybody,

there's a smile all around the room

There's conversation overflowing,

so why must I sit here in the gloom?
