Jewel - 1000 Miles Away Lyrics

It's morning time, wonder where you are 
wonder who you're talking to 
wonder if the sun has risen where you are 
it's morning time, i miss your hands on my skin 
this bed's too big without you 
oh god, what do i do? 
I'm a thousand miles away, and I'm lying next to you. 

The sun shines golden, and I feel like my car 
a little run down, a little beat up, maybe just a little green 
maybe it's my battery, maybe it's my starter, 
maybe my heart's too weak 
there's just this feeling, thought I had to get going 
got too scary, got too big, got to get out of here 
but now i don't know how to get home. 
oh god, what do I do? 
I'm a thousand miles away, and lying next to you. 

Mama says take my vitamins, 
daddy says "girl, don't stay out so late" 
sister says "there's other fishes in the sea" 
but love is not a rational thing, and my heart is beyond advice 
no, love is not a rational thing 
oh god, what do I do? 
I'm a thousand miles away, and lying next to you. 

these fields stretch out like patchwork, on my granny's quilt 
she used to tell me that 
"life is a series of strange and mysterious things 
one minute you think you're up, the next you find you're down" 
your mind says "girl, you gotta stick around" 
but your heart says "I'm too weak in the knees" 
oh god, what do I do? 
I'm a thousand miles away, and lying next to you.
