verse 1: The wind blew through the streets of the city And the wind blew through my room today Carried my heart out the open window You're a thousand miles away, away a thousand miles away You're a thousand miles away, away a thousand miles away verse 2: In Montreal on a summer's evening On St. Denis when the music played All you left me was Thursday morning You're a thousand miles away, away a thousand miles away You're a thousand miles away, away a thousand miles away All I wanted was another hour Just another hour of yesterday All I wanted was to walk beside you Hear what you had to say verse 3: And as we sat there laughing and talking Well it came to me as clear as day That the world we live in and the world we walk in Are a thousand miles away, away a thousand miles away Are a thousand miles away, away a thousand miles away Chorus verse 4: The wind blew through the streets of the city And the wind blew through my room today Carried my heart out the open window You're a thousand miles away, away a thousand miles away You're a thousand miles away, away a thousand miles away
