Too Far Away

Sometimes miss you most when you are sitting here with me
Sometimes separation is the answer
Absence makes the heart grow harder each and every day

And now I want you back
But you're so far away
And we're running out of time
There's a lot I want to say

If I can say the things I wanted
I'd be a famous poet
The rhymes escape me when you are around
I tried to turn back what's been done
And find you where I left you

And now I want you back
But you're so far away
And we're running out of time
There's a lot I want to say
And it's playing on my mind

But if love won't save me
I won't go all in
I'll take one on the chain
But you
You give me all you had when you were here
And now you're in a better place than me
I'm changed, rising up to be the better you
And that I knew

Pulling up the wires, I find the sadness mixes nicely
Putting a glass of grade a serviced gin
Lengthening the shades I look out to the vibrant distance

And now, I want you back
But you're so far away
And we're running out of time
There's a lot I want to say
And it's playing on my mind
And I wish that you could stay
And now there's something that gets to shine
But I'm heading for the shade
And I'm holding on the line

But if this is our time
Let us go in kind
Live our lives as if our lives depended on it
Take the night by hand
Be your favorite band
Take me into you
See if this is true
Now I lay you down
Buried in the ground
But I carry on
'Cause I must be strong
Strong
