Far away you seem so far away
When it was only yesterday
That you were oh so close to me

So close that every sigh
Was like the whisper of a lover's lullaby
The way the ocean loves the edges of the sky
As close as we could be

But now you're far away
So far away you're like a distant star away
And even though your hands could touch me if they tried
When love has died what more is there to say

I only know you're so far away
You're long ago, so far away

Far away, so far away

But now you're far away
So far away you're like a distant star away
And even though your hands could touch me if they tried
When love has died what more is there to say

I only know you're oh so far away
You're long ago and oh so far away
Oh so far away

Far away, so far away
