  • It's one of those conversations
    We've, we've had them before
    The ones that leave you empty and wanting for more

    Your eyes they tell me something that I understand
    Your eyes they hold the truth and the truth is

    You're miles away
    You're miles away
    You're miles away

    Excuse me for my hesitation
    I've, I met you before
    Your face seems so familiar and longing for more

    Your eyes they tell me something that I understand
    Your eyes they hold the truth and the truth is

    You're miles away
    You're miles away
    You're miles away

    With all your superstitions and empty lines
    I could be just like you
    Withdrawn but alive

    Life it has its limitations
    We all have our needs
    Love could be the only answer
    It lies underneath

    Your eyes they tell me something that I understand
    Your eyes they hold the truth and a truth is

    You're miles away
    You're miles away
    You're miles away
    You're miles away
    You're miles away
    You're miles away
    You're miles away
    You're miles away
    You're miles away Writer/s: Andrew Phillpott, Christian Eigner, David Gahan
