A million miles away
Your signal in the distance

Please could you stop the noise
I'm trying to get some rest

How long, how long will I slide
Separate my side

Oh, a storm is threat'ning
My very life today

Is it getting better?
Or do you feel the same?

I am just a poor boy
Though my story's seldom told

I am my mother's only one
It's enough

I'm coming out of my cage
And I’ve been doing just fine

Oh yeah, I'll tell you something
I think you'll understand

I took my love and I took it down
I climbed a mountain and I turned around

I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word

Can't you see that it's just raining?
Ain't no need to go outside

Oh baby don't you know I suffer?
Oh baby can you hear me moan?

He seemed impressed by the way you came in
''Tell us a story I know you're not boring''

Well no one told me about her
The way she lied

Is this the real life?
Is this just fantasy?

Do I attract you?
Do I repulse you with my queasy smile?

Left a good job in the city
Workin' for the man every night and day

In the time of chimpanzees I was a monkey

(Turn around)
Every now and then I get a little bit lonely and you're never coming round

Just a small town girl
Livin' in a lonely world

I made it through the wilderness
Somehow I made it through

You can dance. You can Jive
Having the time of your life

I'm gonna make a change
For once in my life

If I should stay
I would only be in your way
