So Far Away

An hour of this, a season of that

You'd better turn up the thermostat

'Cause you'll be sleeping' alone tonight

November whispers and shakes her fist

Leaves fall down with promises

I won't be there to dry your eyes

So, please, don't cry

When I'm so far away (so, so far)

So far away, my love (so far away)

What can I do or say? (so, so far)

When I'm so far away (so far away)

I'm lost by day and working all night

I read your note about the pilot light

Didn't I fix that thing before?

An extra blanket will have to do

You know I can't come home to you

Shut the windows tight, lock the door

I've seen that sky before

And I'm so far away (so, so far)

So far away, my love (so far away)

There's nothing I can do or say (so, so far)

When I'm so far away (so far away)

And I'm so far away (so, so far)

So far away, my love (so far away)

(So, so far)

(So far away)

(So, so far)

(So far away)

(So, so far)

(So far away)

(So, so far)

(So far away)

A summer sun, a winter-gray moon

Read a mystery, I'll be home soon

What did you say? It's hard to hear

I miss your touch, I need your smile

Would you love a frightened child?

If I were there, if you were here

If I were near

But I'm so far away (so, so far)

So far away, my love (so far away)

I can't hear a word you say (so, so far)

When I'm so far away (so far away)

And I'm so far away (so, so far)

So far away, my love (so far away)

What can I do? What can I say? (so, so far)

When I'm so far away (so far away)
