Gurus Hoodoo 1000 Miles Away lyrics

Estimated time of arrival 9.30 a.m.
Been up before the sun and now I`m tired before I even begin.
(Now you`re flying) I got so much work in front of me,
(Really flying) it stretches out far as the eye can see.
I can see.

Spend half my life in airports doing crosswords and attempting to sleep,
And when the bar is open then you`ll often find me warming a seat.
(Now you`re flying) I never find a place where I can stay
(Really flying) I`d rather be a thousand miles away.
Thousand miles away.

Working for yourself sometimes ain`t all that it`s cracked up to be.
It can be as lonely at the top as at the bottom of that corporate tree
(Now you`re flying) I`m told I`m going places - who can say ?
(Really flying) I might arrive but I`ll be gone the very next day.
I must be on my way
A thousand miles away.

Promised to myself someday I`d take the time and try to make sense
Out of all those opportunities I`ve lost from trying to sit on the fence
(Now you`re flying) But right now I`ve got no time for yesterday
(Really flying) Yesterday`s a thousand miles away.
A thousand miles away.

What was that that you were trying to say ?
I guess I was a thousand miles away.
Sing it again
