Neko Case — 1000 Miles Away lyrics

Lyrics

I’m out in the cold
I gaze through your window
The music’s on
I’m watching you sway
Just yesterday
In February’s dark
We watched the stars
Explode until day break
How can you stand right there
And be a thousand miles away?
A thousand miles away
I saw a light in your eyes
It was the animal kind
All fierce and bright
Now every color fades
I’m out in the snow
In your golden glow
I feel no heat
From my feet up to my face
How can you stand right there
And be a thousand miles away?
A thousand miles away
