Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Here I am again in this mean old town
And you're so far away from me
Now, where are you when the sun go down?
You're so far away from me
[Verse 2]
You're so far away from me
So far I just can't see
You're so far away from me
You're so far away from me
Alright
[Verse 3]
I'm tired of being in love and being all alone
When you're so far away from me
I'm tired of making out on the telephone
'Cause you're so far away from me
[Verse 4]
You're so far away from me
You're so far, I just can't see
You're so far away from me
You're so far away from me
Alright
[Verse 5]
And I get so tired when I have to explain
When you're so far away from me
See, you've been in the sun and I've been in the rain
And you're so far away from me
[Verse 6]
You're so far away from me
You're so far, I just can't see
You're so far away from me
You're so far away from me
Take it down
[Verse 7]
So far away from me
You're so far away from me
[Verse 8]
(You're so far)
Oh, you're so far away from me
Yeah, you're so far away from me, so far away from me
(You're so far)
And you're so far away from me
So far away from me
(You're so far)
So far away from me
You're so far away from me, so far away from me, so far away
(You're so far)
So far away from me
Yeah, you're so far away from me
(You're so far)
Alright
(You're so far)
You're just so far away from me
