Lyrics
100 Miles (From Nowhere)
Drivin in my car at night
Thinkin' of yesterday gone by
Stupid me I missed my flight
Runnin' down the hi-way
Majestic thought of bigger dreams
Tantalize a bigger scheme
Goin' home in rocket ships
Is quite a show for those who quip
But it's all 100 MILES (from Nowhere)
Simpler things of simple themes
Makes it right or so it seems
A man dreams of bigger things
Seems so far like a shooting star
Standing here in vacant time
Waiting for a chance to shine
Before you ask what time it is
Ask yourself of who's in need
CHORUS
BRIDGE
Chasin' down distant stars
Putting miles on this car.
When you think that all is gone
Look ahead Oh risin' sun
When it seems like all is gone
Look ahead to tomorrows dawn
And when you think it's all too far
Remember, you're that shooting star
SOLO
END CHORUS
