Lyrics for Miles Away

Now, the swamp is getting deeper all the time And the faces that I see don't seem to shine, that's right Now there's too much Warhol hanging off the wall And the mystery that there used to be is gone (Let me go) miles away (Let me ride) just miles away Don't wanna know I'm not gonna miss it much Gonna be gone and once you're (Gonna) miles away (Let me ride) Got to get outta here Don't wanna know (yeah) Gonna be gone and once again Don Juan goes up in a cloud of smoke And all those Hare Krishnas turned out to be a joke And it's restless, restless, restless all the time Slidin' up and down the surface of this life Now I know that I can't say what's black and white But if I could fly, I think I'd try tonight You know, why? 'Cause - (Let me go) miles away (Let me ride) miles away (Don't wanna know) I'm not gonna miss ya Gonna be driving once again (Gonna go) miles away (Let me ride) just miles away (Don't wanna know) I'm gonna leave Gonna be driving once again (Let me go) miles away (Let me ride) (Don't wanna know) I can't stand it Gonna be driving once again (Gonna go) out of here (Let me ride) I'm not gonna miss ya (Don't wanna know) miles away Gonna be driving once again Miles away, miles away Miles away, miles away Miles away, miles away Miles away, miles away Miles away
