Million Miles Away

Cleared away the ashtray
From your last cigarette
Moved the hamper from Christmas just gone
With your bits to nibble on
Ricci brought you flowers
They were on the fire place
Your pink fleecy blanket
Folded where you laid

Ask me how I'm doing I say ok
Ain't that what we all say
Doing one hundred down the highway
God speed take me a million miles away
Ask me how I'm doing I say ok
Ain't that what we all say
Doing one hundred down the highway
Godspeed take me a million miles away

I thought that you would wake up
Thought we'd get to talk
We was all by your side that night
Nan I know you knew that
Sat holding your elegant hands
Kissing your forehead like I've always done
Pain you felt
When you kept it to yourself
Nan family ain't the same anymore
You was always the core

Ask me how I'm doing I say ok
Ain't that what we all say
Doing one hundred down the highway
God speed take me a million miles away
Ask me how I'm doing I say ok
Ain't that what we all say
Doing one hundred down the highway
Godspeed take me a million miles away

Told me off
For making you laugh
Fits and giggles we were laughing hard
Was it worse than the pain you was in
I'm glad we got to share our smiles and grins
Then you rose up to the night sky
Made the sky bright
Stay up all night
Talk to ya till the sunrise
3AM thoughts in the back of my mind
Sitting with my headphones on at night
Reminiscing about our good times
I wont lie
I wanna cry
I wanna cry
Come home tonight

Ask me how I'm doing I say ok
Ain't that what we all say
Doing one hundred down the highway
God speed take me a million miles away
Ask me how I'm doing I say ok
Ain't that what we all say
Doing one hundred down the highway
Godspeed take me a million miles away

Took me places I never knew
I never knew
Across the ocean we flew
Across the ocean we flew
Miss how your face lit up when I walked through the door
With your smile so warm
Smile so warm
