[Verse 1]

What you, what you are in the kitchen with the flame?

Floating ‘round Jupiter, you hit a sympathetic vein

You got lucky fake ass monogamy, tell me that that’s a lie

Everybody falls before they fly


[Chorus]

And her body’s still warm, but you're miles away

A little baby was born, but she would not stay

We were getting it on, but you're miles away...

It couldn’t be my fault, “I’m a man” I say


[Verse 2]

She be the one I lost, she be the one in my outer space

So tell me now love, tell me now why I moonwalk whenever she walk away

‘Cause fake ass monogamy in me

Angel don’t you fall for gravity


[Chorus]

And her body’s still warm, but you're miles away

She tell me "nothing is wrong", but she's miles away

We were getting it on, but you're miles away...

It couldn’t be my fault, “I’m a man” I say


[Bridge]

All the love that we lost, are you waiting for a perfect day? (Yeah)

All the life that we lost, the life that we lost (when you're miles away)

(I am lost) You know that I'm lost

If I have lost


[Refrain]

When you're miles away

You're right here, but you're miles away

In your eyes I'm miles away

Don't lie, you're miles away


[Chorus]

And her body’s still warm, but you're miles away

A little baby was born, but she would not stay

We were getting it on, but you're miles away...


[Outro]

Wait.. wait.. wait.. wait...

Wait.. wait.. wait.. wait...

Wait.. wait.. wait.. wait...

Wait.. wait.. wait.. wait...
