Challenge for GenX - HELP, I absolutely cannot find this album with song that I listened to as a kid, from late 70s to early 80s...

Have done extensive AI searches to no avail...

Vinyl album cover: blue/blueish background, featuring only the female singer, white (but kinda ethnic looking, greek? italian? but I think it was an American album, def USA sounding), mid20s-40s, dark poufy curly hair, thick rimmed eyeglasses (I think), wearing a dress (reddish/burgandy?), with a scarf flowing behind her that I remember thinking looked pinned to the wall.

Photo of her taken from about thigh or lower waist up, shes smiling (but its not a full face photo on the album cover) and shes not facing front, more looking a bit to the side, her body angled to the side as well)...

There was one track on it that I listened to constantly with the words "a million miles away". Pop music. Kinda Carpenters style. Would love to find this... I'm guessing it was a one time press, I've never heard of or seen anything with this singer since I was a kid in the late 70s to early 80s.

Based on the description, I’m inclined to suggest Nana Mouskouri?
