So Far Away

There’s a certain shade of green that always follows me  
Freedom keeps my soul from being free  
Even though you held my hand  
I hope you can always understand    
   
Maybe it’s the words written in stone    
“Remember me” makes me feel so alone  
Like a light lost in the wind  
Are you a candle or a friend    
   
Why you gotta be so far away  
I didn’t plan for life to turn out this way  
I’ll find my way back to you someday  
Why you gotta be so far away  
   
More than miles are between you me  
Broken bridges seem like eternity    
Are promises and forever real  
Are they like the secrets we try to conceal    
   
Why you gotta be so far away
I didn’t plan for life to turn out this way  
I’ll find my way back to you someday  
Why you gotta be so far away  
   
Hey yea  
   
(Instrumental)  
   
So open your heart like a book of dreams    
Where the only light are the sunbeams  
Dancing through your hair  
I would sell my soul to be there  
   
Why you gotta be so far away
I didn’t plan for life to turn out this way  
I’ll find my way back to you someday  
Why you gotta be so far away  
   
Why you gotta be... so far away  
So far away from me
