After The Ball Miles

Paul McCartney

After The Ball/Million Miles

After the ball, after the ball, you were the one out in the hall

You were the one, the one who would love me, after the ball.

After the ball, after the ball, you were the one out in the hall

You were the one, the one who would love me, after the ball.

Well, I arrived, looked around but the room was full of strangers

Nowhere was a friendly face to be found.

Later on, I awoke, but the party it was over

There you were waiting to bring me 'round.

How many million miles, day-oh?

How many million miles, day-oh?

When I get up, up, up in the morning, whoa! Lord I know.

When I look up, up, up in the morning, whoa! Lord I know.

How many million miles, day-oh?

How many million miles, day-oh?

How many million miles, day-oh?
