Рок и блюзминусовки

You took a part of me that I really miss I keep askin' myself how long it can go on like this You told yourself a lie - that's alright, mama, I told myself one too I've tried to get closer but I'm still a million miles from you. You took the silver, you took the gold You left me standin' out in the cold People ask about you, I didn't tell them everything I knew Well, I've tried to get closer but I'm still a million miles from you. I'm driftin' in and out of dreamless sleep Throwin' all my memories in a ditch so deep Did so many things I never did intend to do Well, I've tried to get closer but I'm still a million miles from you. I need your love so bad, turn your lamp down low I need every bit of it for the places that I go Sometimes I wonder 'til it's just what it's all coming to Well, I've tried to get closer but I'm still a million miles from you. Well, I don't dare close my eyes and I don't dare wink Maybe in the next life I'll be able to hear myself think Feel like talkin' to somebody but I just don't know who Well, I've tried to get closer but I'm still a million miles from you. Yes, the last thing you said before ya hit the street Gonna find me a janitor to sweep me off my feet I said, "That's all right, mamma, you, you do what you gotta do" Well, I've tried to get closer, I'm still a million miles from you. Rock me, pretty baby, rock me all at once Rock me for a little while, rock me for a couple of months And I'll rock you too I'm tryin' to get closer but I'm still a million miles from you. Well, there's voices in the night tryin' to be heard I'm sittin' here listening to every mind-pollutin' word I know plenty of people put me up for a day or two Yes, I'm tryin' to get closer but I'm still a million miles from you.
