5 Miles

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

It’s a shame that I’m never gonna see your face again

We’re both strangers

But I’m kind of hoping maybe that could change

Well, I hope I don’t sound out of place

And maybe you will think it’s crazy

You look amazing, so I say it straight

I’ve got a real fast car with the keys in

And I’m just five miles from a feeling

So when your red lights go turning green, now

If you say you’re coming with me

I’ll take you there

(There)

(I’ll take you there)

(There)

We’re just five miles from a feeling

(I’ll take you there)

Such a waste that you are stuck here working in this place

So, come on, take my hand

‘Cause there’s nothing in this town to make you stay, yeah

Well, I hope I don’t sound out of place

And maybe you will think it’s crazy

I think it’s time we make our getaway

I’ve got a real fast car with the keys in

And I’m just five miles from a feeling

So when your red lights go turning green, now

If you say you’re coming with me

I’ll take you there

(There)

(I’ll take you there)

(There)

We’re just five miles from a feeling

(I’ll take you there)

(There)

(I’ll take you there)

(There)

We’re just five miles from a feeling

I’ve got a hundred dollars

And you’re mine for the colours

I could just go and you could stay

I’ve met a million others

Lived a thousand summers

Something ‘bout you makes me wanna say

I’ve got a real fast car with the keys in

And I’m just five miles from a feeling

So when your red lights go turning green, now

If you say you’re coming with me

I’ll take you there

(There)

(I’ll take you there)

(There)

We’re just five miles from a feeling

(I’ll take you there)

(There)

(I’ll take you there)

(There)

We’re just five miles from a feeling
