8000 miles away from home
8000 miles away from rest
So far away from everything that feels like mine
And all the people I love best

Chorus
I couldn’t sleep all night
And now the dawn will ease my mind
Keeping my eyes on the brightest corner of the sky
I walked down to the harbor
Waiting for the sun to rise
Keepin’ my eyes on the brightest corner of the sky

Who’d ever thought we’d go this far?
That I would see the southern stars
But I haven’t seen the hills of my hometown
Since Christmas day
Though soon I’m headed back that way
