Miles Away - Peter Bradley Adams

Holy rollers with careless tongues\nShout the name of the chosen one\nDrums are pounding with no relief\nRising over the crowded streets\nMiles away, miles away\nLost inside their shadow play\nMiles away, miles away\nSo many miles away\nHighways strangled with smoke and dust\nHanging over the evening rush\nTwisted faces with old regrets\nRest their eyes on the road ahead\nMiles away, miles away\nLost inside their shadow play\nMiles away, miles away\nSo many miles away\nSirens howling as children sleep\nIn the glow of a TV screen\nA golden sparrow on broken wings\nTumbles over the rising sea\nMiles away, miles away\nLost inside their shadow play\nMiles away, miles away\nSo many miles away\nSo many miles away
