SO FAR AWAY
It's been a long time since I've gone away,
It's all on me or so you say.
City by city keeps passing by,
I don't know how and I'm not sure why.
It's time to move on now I've got to go,
Back on the bus I gotta play the next show.
Try to hold onto those times we had,
There was so much good and so few bad.
I tried to call you up but there's just no time today,
And It's so hard to hold you when you're so far away.
I tried to say goodbye but I could not find a way,
And it's so hard to hold you when you're so far away,
Ooh it's so hard to hold you when you're so far away.
At times it feels like the well's run dry,
I get so tired I have to ask myself why.
Then I remember that we do it all for you,
It's your embrace that pulls us through.
I tried to call you up but there's just no time today,
And It's so hard to hold you when you're so far away.
I tried to say goodbye but I could not find a way,
And it's so hard to hold you when you're so far away,
Ooh it's so hard to hold you when you're so far away.
Further and further we seem to roam,
It's been so long now since I've seen my home,
What we seek so shall we find,
But what about me and what about mine?
I tried to call you up but there's just no time today,
And It's so hard to hold you when you're so far away.
I tried to say goodbye but I could not find a way,
And it's so hard to hold you when you're so far away,
Ooh it's so hard to hold you when you're so far away.
Rounding the corner, I see my home,
And it feels so strange to finally be alone.
Supper in the kitchen, smoke in the flu,
But we can't wait to go out back with all of you.
I tried to call you up but there's just no time today,
And It's so hard to hold you when you're so far away.
I tried to say goodbye but I could not find a way,
And it's so hard to hold you when you're so far away,
Ooh it's so hard to hold you when you're so far away.
