she's always busy caring 'cos that's all she's ever done
she's a thousand Florence Nightingales all rolled up into one
and (well) people take advantage but she loves her fellow friend
with a slow, slow count from ten...
when strangers die around her she still cries herself to sleep
and she seldom gets the chance to pick the company she keeps
and the ring around her finger is a ring around her past
and a youth that couldn't last
when people ask if she's OK she doesn't even answer
her mind is set on auto-think, for heaven knows how long
with the body of an angel and the features of a child
[CHORUS:]
she's miles and miles and miles and miles away
she's the miles away girl, 'cos she's the miles away girl
and she slaps miles and miles of smiles on every face
she's the miles away girl, she's the miles away girl
she's the miles away girl, right next to (me)
she send a men to slumber-land with just one little kiss
her silence is refreshing and her honesty is blissshe's probably clairvoyant but she never had the call
but that's not long at all...
her head's up with the stars because she knows that's where she's heading
the good guys think she's different the rest just think she's weird
she doesn't eat, she doesn't sleep, she's thinking all the while
[CHORUS]
and maybe you're the angel I knew that you could be
well that must be the reason you bring out the devil in me
deep under the covers, an easy place to hide
and imagine the world isn't really going on outside
but you never seem to have any money 'cos the decent people never get paid
but there's never really ever a problem' cos you can get miles away, miles away, miles away
[CHORUS]
The lyrics MILES AWAY GIRL of THE WILDHEARTS is also present in the album Earth vs. the wildhearts (1993)
The Wildhearts sono un gruppo rock originario di Newcastle upon Tyne, in Inghilterra. Il loro sound è una miscela di hard rock e musica pop melodica, spesso descritto dalla stampa musicale come una combinazione di influenze così diverse come The Beatles e Metallica degli anni '80. Tuttavia, questa caratterizzazione viene smentita dalla band, che considera le proprie influenze molto più ampie, come mostrato nella canzone "29 X The Pain", che elenca molte delle influenze del leader del gruppo Ginger. Nonostante diversi singoli top 20 e un album top 10 in Gran Bretagna, i Wildhearts non hanno raggiunto un grande successo commerciale, in parte a causa di difficoltà con le case discografiche e molti problemi interni spesso legati a droghe ricreative e depressione. Gran parte della carriera iniziale del gruppo è stata segnata da aspri contrasti con la loro casa discografica, East West.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
