4,000 Miles Away Lyrics

Wednesday we met up in London

Straight off the plane

Bags packed up to overflowing

It felt strange

A familiar face

Four thousand miles away

From a place

Where they know my name

We caught a train up to Holyhead

English countryside

Since I was sixteen I'd always said

This was a dream of mine

These rolling hills

Four thousand miles away

A romantic chill

This lolling sway

Now we hardly speak

I suppose in some odd way it's meant to be

But I miss those days in England

I miss those days in England

I tried for what seemed like a lifetime

To crack your shell

The only glimpse that I could ever find

I didn't like so well

We found the end

Four thousand miles away

We're not even friends

I hope you're okay

Now we hardly speak

I suppose in some odd way it's meant to be

But I miss those days in England

I miss those days in England

I miss those days in England

I miss those days in England

You always had

A thing that made me laugh

Now no one is laughing

No one is laughing anymore

I defended you

Turned a blind eye too

Now no one is laughing

No one is laughing anymore

Now we hardly speak

I suppose in some odd way it's meant to be

But I miss those days in England

I miss those days in England

I miss those days in England
