MILE AWAY Lyrics by Watsky

INTENTION

2023

[Verse 1: Watsky & Rachel Zegler]
You never kept it secret, but forgive me if I cry
The first thing you promised is we would say goodbye
But you didn't say when, didn't say how (Ooh)
You told me not to stress and to keep my head down
But I peeked and
[Chorus: Rachel Zegler]
Now you can see me comin' from a mile away
[Verse 2: Watsky]
I didn't write the play, but I got still lines to say
Got my life today
Got my pages and I'm a pro
So I know that the show's gotta go
When the light's bright on stage (Places)
Life is mean, it's been months since I've seen her
But I still got that picture of us out in Argentina on my wall
Why'd I do it again when I know how it ends?
Coulda seen it
[Chorus: Rachel Zegler]
Comin' from a mile away (Ooh)
Comin' from a mile away
Comin' from a mile away (A mile away)
Comin' from a mile away (A milе away)
Comin' from a mile away
[Verse 3: Watsky & Rachel Zegler]
I used to think I'd been built to race
I'd run uphill at a filthy pacе for like fifty years (Ooh)
Fuck that shit, better fill the vase
Pick some roses and chill a case of like fifty beers (Yeah)
I've been spending too many nights runnin' inside of my mind
From what I can spy, come in, come a-knockin' on
On my creaky back door, no sneak attacks, dork, pop a cork
It's another year, another party
Wow, can you believe December's here?
(Of course I can)
We say that same shit every fucking year
So let's get the next one out the way right now
(Oh my, oh my goodness, can you believe it? It's al—)
We're not slowin' down
Time keeps rollin' and we do too
So would you mind if I got old with you?
There's no time to miss the past
The future is coming fast and it's singin' to us
[Chorus: Rachel Zegler]
Now you can see me comin' from a mile away (Comin' from a mile away)
(Comin' from a mile away)
(Comin' from a mile away)
(Comin' from a mile away)
Comin' from a mile away
Comin' from a mile away (Woah)
Now you can see me comin' from a mile away (Now you can see me comin')
Comin' from a mile away
Comin' from a mile away
Comin' from a mile away
Comin' from a mile away
