3000 Miles

I could be in California Put me on an airplane I'd take the A to the air train But I'm sinking in the New York harbor Just a stone's throw away From the terminal at JFK And I tried so hard to get next to you A thousand times That's what they call persistence Sometimes, when you're too close To something you cannot see Keep your distance Three thousand miles Imagine me on the freeway In a bumper-to-bumper jam Moving at the speed of sand Baby, we could do it your way Say the word and I'll disappear Rush out of the atmosphere We'll meet underneath a palm tree On fire, we'll be burning up In late December You won't even recognize me I'll be so far gone You won't even remember Three thousand miles Ain't far enough 'Cause everywhere I go Your pheromones Are reaching out to me Born in captivity And now I've been set free Like a zoo animal in the wild west No chance of survival Three thousand miles Picture me on the freeway Moving at the speed of sand Three thousand miles In a bumper-to-bumper jam Picture me on the freeway Moving at the speed of sand Three thousand miles In a bumper-to-bumper jam
