They used to tell me that I was just a fool

Dreaming away my time

But they soon found the more they put me down

The more I blocked them from my mind

I used to get my teacher so uptight

He'd always have to ask his questions twice



I'd be a million miles away

Drifting through time and space

I was a million miles away from any place

I was a million miles away

In a world of my own

A million miles away to parts unknown

I'd be gone



My end-of-term reports would always show

I did pretty well at school

But I kept them hid from all the other kids

I didn't want to seem uncool

My homeroom teacher didn't understand

The reason why I never raised my hand



I was a million miles away

In a world of my own

A million miles away in parts unknown

I'd be gone



I've flown across the galaxies

And been to Berkeley Square

I've passed the time with Sophocles

But never left my chair



But I'm a million miles away

Drifting through time and space

A million miles away from any place

A million miles away

I've built a world all my own

A million miles away to parts unknown

I'd be gone

A million miles away
