1000 Miles Away

Estimated time of arrival 9:30 a.m
 Been up before the sun, and now I'm tired before I even begin
 (Now you're flying) I got so much work in front of me
 (Really flying) it stretches out far as the eye can see
 I can see
 Spend half my life in airports, doing crosswords or attempting to sleep
 And when the bar is open, then you'll often find me warming a seat
 (Now you're flying) I never find a place where I can stay
 (Really flying) I'd rather be a thousand miles away
 Thousand miles away
 ♪
 Working for yourself sometimes ain't all that it's cracked up to be
 It can be as lonely at the top as at the bottom of that corporate tree
 (Now you're flying) I'm told I'm going places, who can say?
 (Really flying) I might arrive, but I'll be gone the very next day
 I must be on my way
 A thousand miles away
 ♪
 Promised to myself, someday I'd take the time and try to make sense
 Out of all those opportunities I've lost from trying to sit on the fence
 (Now you're flying) right now I got no time for yesterday
 (Really flying) yesterday's a thousand miles away
 Thousand miles away (a thousand miles away)
 Thousand miles away (a thousand miles away)
 (Now you're flying) what was that that you were tryin' to say?
 I guess I was a thousand miles away, ey-ey-ey
 Hey-ey-ey, hey
 (A thousand miles away) sing it again
 (A thousand miles away) sing it again
 (A thousand miles away) sing it again
 (A thousand miles away)
 Sing it again
