about

Far & Away was a song I was hesitant to include on this album, but it's necessary. I wrote this song in November, just a month before we got divorced. The lyrics are about how even though we're far apart, I could fall asleep thinking about her at night and it would almost bridge the gap. Unfortunately it all fell apart, obviously. I'm still trying to figure out how to integrate this into the album proper, but I'll find a way.

lyrics

Far and away, you're by my side
I see your face when I close my eyes
And when it's cold I'm holding you tight
From Far and away, from Far and away

First time, eyes locked - I can't see straight
Dark hair, dark eyes - darken my way
No game, no chance, know she's taken
Just stop now, boy - you're mistaken

She's got another, she's got a lover
Better than you and ten times stronger
Don't make a move or you'll just flounder
I know I'm in love now that I've found her

Far and away, you're by my side
I see your face when I close my eyes
And when it's cold I'm holding you tight
From Far and away, from Far and away

Long time later, undecided
Please don't speak just try to hide it
I know you're leaving but I wonder
How I could be with another

Girls come and girls go
Love can sometimes never grow
Make excuses all you want
But when you meet your wife you just know

Far and away, you're by my side
I see your face when I close my eyes
And when it's cold I'm holding you tight
From Far and away, from Far and away
