Million Miles Away [Apollo 440 Mix] Lyrics

There was a time
Looking through myself
Wanted to pretend
If I escaped
I could feel myself
I don't think you can
Been far and wide
But that hole inside
Never really leaves

I went away
But I really lost
Left behind was me

Install in me
Clear me on my way

Ohhhhhhhh
Ohh oh oh, ohh oh oh
A Million Miles Away
(Ohh oh oh, ohh oh oh)
A Million Miles Away

I can't stay
I can't stay
(Ohh oh oh, ohh oh oh)
A Million Miles Away

Each passing day
Every passing face
Seems like such a gloom
I long to be
Home silently
Lying next to her

Just to get back
By her side is all,
All I need to be

I went away
What I really lost
Left behind was me

I need to be
Getting on my way

Ohhhh oh oh oh
Ohh oh oh, ohh oh oh
Ohh oh oh, ohh oh oh
A Million Miles Away
(Oh oh oh, oh oh oh)
A Million Miles Away

I can't take
I can't take
(Oh oh oh, oh oh oh)
A Million Miles Away

Install in me
Turn me on my way

I can't take, I can't take
A Million Miles Away

I can't take, I can't take
A Million Miles Away

I can't take, I can't take
A Million Miles Away

Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
I can't take
I can't take
A Million Miles Away

Kristy, Are You Doing OK?

There was a time
Looking through myself
Wanted to pretend
If I escaped
I could feel myself
I don't think you can
Been far and wide
But that hole inside
Never really leaves

I went away
But I really lost
Left behind was me

Install in me
Clear me on my way

Ohhhhhhhh
Ohh oh oh, ohh oh oh
A Million Miles Away
(Ohh oh oh, ohh oh oh)
A Million Miles Away

I can't stay
I can't stay
(Ohh oh oh, ohh oh oh)
A Million Miles Away

Each passing day
Every passing face
Seems like such a gloom
I long to be
Home silently
Lying next to her

Just to get back
By her side is all,
All I need to be

I went away
What I really lost
Left behind was me

I need to be
Getting on my way

Ohhhh oh oh oh
Ohh oh oh, ohh oh oh
Ohh oh oh, ohh oh oh
A Million Miles Away
(Oh oh oh, oh oh oh)
A Million Miles Away

I can't take
I can't take
(Oh oh oh, oh oh oh)
A Million Miles Away

Install in me
Turn me on my way

I can't take, I can't take
A Million Miles Away

I can't take, I can't take
A Million Miles Away

I can't take, I can't take
A Million Miles Away

Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
I can't take
I can't take
A Million Miles Away

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
