Lyrics
SIXTEEN MILES
(c)2012 Casia and Benny Moore - lyrics
Benny - composition/arrangement/mix
Henry Mittnacht - Guitar
Mike McKinnon - Bass
(Verse)
Sixteen miles to the highway
And I'm running out of time
I might get there with my suitcase
And confusion on my mind
(Chorus)
Sixteen miles to the nearest highway
Can't you see that I'm a mess
Sixteen miles to the nearest highway
I'm sending out an SOS
Sixteen miles to the nearest highway
A broken heart in distress
Sixteen miles...to the nearest highway
(Verse)
Don't know how I got this far
Don't know how I walked away
It seems you never cared enough
To ever make me want to stay
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
When I hit the highway
I won't be looking back
Got to do it my way
I won't stop, won't get off track
(Verse)
Sixteen miles to the highway
And I'm making up lost time
(Chorus)
