Lyrics

Worlds Away

[Verse 1]

Walking around it's clear that I'm worlds away

Thinking with only half my mind

Found myself wanting to be sleeping

To be dreaming, to be worlds away

[Verse 2]

Slip into bed, the sheets are cold and smooth

My tension melts to a quiet warmth

Find myself waiting to be sleeping

To be dreaming, to be worlds away

[Pre-Chorus]

I wanna be worlds away

Apart from the day to day

I know I'll be okay

When I get worlds away

[Chorus]

Worlds away

Worlds away

Worlds away

Worlds away

[Verse 3]

Slipping away to somewhere in my heart

Go to a world where no one's been before

That's when I find myself not quite sleeping

But still dreaming and I'm worlds away

[Pre-Chorus]

I wanna be worlds away

Apart from the day to day

I know I'll be okay

When I get worlds away

[Chorus]

Worlds away

Worlds away

Worlds away

Worlds away
