From A Mile Away Lyrics

From A Mile Away
Written By Dave Polich
Alien stopped in Roswell, on his way to the Promised Land.
Walked into the bar and said “I’m feelin’ thirsty man”.
Everywhere I go seems they won’t serve you if you’re green.
Waitress took his hand and said, “I know just what you mean”.
(She said) I saw you coming from a mile away.
And I’ve been praying for this everyday.
Now that you’re with me Angel won’t you stay?
I saw you coming from a mile away.
Sally dressed up like a man she walked the town at night.
People on the street said, “Hey, you don’t look quite right”.
Old Blind Joe took pity, said, “I know what you need”.
There is nothin’ wrong with you; it’s the rest that just can’t see.

(He said) I saw ya comin from a mile away.
And I’ve been prayin that I’d see this day.
Now that you’re with me Angel won’t you stay?
I saw you coming from a mile away.
Down on 2nd avenue with the whole world on my head.
To far from redemption and feeling half past dead.
Now the milk of human kindness does not flow so easily.
And baby that’s the reason that you mean so much to me.
Alien stopped in Roswell on his way to the Promised Land.
