you can see a million miles tonight/ but you can't get very far

Well I woke in mid-afternoon cause that's when it all hurts the most

I dream I never know anyone at the party and I'm always the host

If dreams are like movies, then memories are films about ghosts

You can never escape, you can only move south down the coast

well, I am an idiot walking a tightrope of fortune and fame

I am an acrobat swinging trapezes through circles of flame

If you've never stared off in the distance, then your life is a shame

and though I'll never forget your face,

sometimes i can't remember my name .........

(better listening!)
