"Miles Away" is a power ballad[3] by American rock band Winger from their album In the Heart of the Young. Released in late 1990 to pop radio after already reaching number one in most AOR markets, the song peaked at number 12 on the Hot 100 chart.[4] It is also significant for being Winger's only ever hit single in the United Kingdom, reaching number 56 in January 1991.
The single featured a B-side, "All I Ever Wanted", that was never released on any other Winger albums or compilations, though it did appear, in demo form, on the Demo Anthology.
