So Far Away

Every time I think of you
You get a little smaller
Suns getting lower and the
Shadows getting taller
Light gets caught in the tree top branches
Released to the fire as
The tree becomes ashes

Hills glow gold as the rays of the sun go
High above the water see the cloud sit solo
The whale can dive to the bottom of the ocean
Frozen time and frozen motion

So far away, so far away
When I get there, it's gonna be a better day
So far away, so far away
I'll get there tomorrow if I leave yesterday

Say goodbye to the family table
Work when you can and sleep when you're able
The price keeps rising and the
Kids are getting bolder
Every time I think of you
You get a little older
Little bit softer and round at the shoulder

So far away, so far away
When I get there, it's gonna be a better day
So far away, so far away
I'll get there tomorrow if I leave yesterday
I'll get there tomorrow if I leave yesterday
