Far Away

When she was just a child, she reached for the sky

But it slipped right out of her hands

So she closed her eyes and flew through the night, and dreamed of

Far-a-far-away, far-a-far-away, far-a-far-away

Every time she closed her eyes

When she was just a child, she hoped for the stars

But they faded into the dark, and the weight fell on her heart

Life moves on, it gets so heavy

The wind breaks the butterfly, every hope a lullaby

In the night, the stormy night, she'd close her eyes

In the night, the stormy night, away she'd fly

Far-a-far-away, far-a-far-away

Far-a-far-away, far-a-far-away

Far-a-far-away, far-a-far-away

Far-a-far-away, far-a-far-away

She wandered through the rain, looking for the light

But it danced just out of her reach

So she spun her dreams on wings made of time, and soared through

Far-a-far-away, far-a-far-away, far-a-far-away

Every time she closed her eyes

When she was just a child, she chased after the dawn

But it always turned into dusk, and the world felt so far gone

Life rolls on, it gets so heavy

The tide sweeps the butterfly, every tear a lullaby

In the night, the silent night, she'd close her eyes

In the night, the silent night, she'd take to the skies

Far-a-far-away, far-a-far-away

Far-a-far-away, far-a-far-away

Far-a-far-away, far-a-far-away

Far-a-far-away, far-a-far-away

And underneath the fading skies, she'd say"I know the sun will rise again someday"
