"A Million Miles Away Behind The Door" lyrics

"A Million Miles Away Behind The Door"

Send back the world
There's too much night for me
The sun is much too high
To shelter me when darkness falls

Four cabin walls
Would be just right for me
I need a threshold I can cross
Where I can sit and gather moss
Forevermore

A million miles away behind the door
Roll up the plains
There's too much view for me
There's so much space between
The waiting heart, and whispered word

It's never heard
One room will do for me
Where every evening I can stare
At someone smiling from his chair
Across the floor

A million miles away behind the door
No fears
No fools
No lies
No rules
Just doing with my life
What life is for
A million miles away behind the door


Writer(s): Andre G. Previn, Alan Jay Lerner
