So Far Away
Bridgeway Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We felt close to the sun as we burned like a flame
And I thought I could always stay with you
What a shame you don't feel the way I do
No, I can't let go every time you leave
My heart is slowly freezing
It's the same old song that we played for years
So far away, and I'm barely breathing
So far away
Now I live and I pray that our love never fades
No reply yet received though I try to believe
And I said I would never let it show
I'm afraid I could end up all alone
No, I can't let go every time you leave
My heart is slowly freezing
It's the same old song that we played for years
It gets so hard to speak we're
So far away, and I'm barely breathing
So far away
If you made a choice a long time ago
Would you care enough to let me know
No, I can't let go every time you leave
My heart is slowly freezing
It's the same old song that we played for years
No, I can't let go every time you leave
My heart is slowly freezing
It's the same old song that we played for years
It gets so hard to speak we're
So far away, and I'm barely breathing
So far away, it gets hard to speak we're
So far away
The lyrics in Bridgeway's song "So Far Away" seem to be about a relationship that has come to a standstill. The singer reminisces about a time they spent with the other person, lying by the lake and feeling close to the sun, and how they thought they could always stay with them. However, as the song progresses, it becomes clear that the other person does not reciprocate those feelings, and the singer struggles to let go every time they leave. The repetition of the line "It's the same old song that we played for years" suggests that this is a cycle that has been going on for some time, and it's become difficult to communicate with one another. The singer is afraid of ending up alone, and wonders if the other person would even let them know if they made a choice a long time ago.
The theme of distance is prevalent throughout the song, both physically and emotionally. The two people in the relationship seem to be drifting further and further apart, and the singer feels like they're barely holding on. The metaphor of the heart slowly freezing is particularly poignant, emphasizing the idea that the feelings between the two have gone cold.
Overall, the lyrics in "So Far Away" suggest a feeling of longing and sadness, a sense of not quite being in sync with someone else. It's a portrayal of a relationship struggling to survive under the weight of miscommunication and unrequited feelings.

If you had made a decision a while back
Would you care enough to let me know
Would you care enough to inform me?

Paroles/Lyrics :
I remember the day we were lying by the lake
Tout repasse dans ma tête, comme un film, sans arrêt
And I thought I could always stay with you Mais déjà, tu es bien trop loin de nous
No, I can't let go every time you leave
My heart is slowly freezing
Il nous reste encore tant de chose à vivre
No, I can't let go every time you leave
Une histoire qui se dessine
So far away, tu es si loin déjà
So Far Away Près de moi
Il y en a d'autres qui se posent et s'envolent
Tout me ramène à toi, tu me gardes, tu me voles
And I said I would never let it show
Car j'ai peur de tomber d'encore plus haut
No, I can't let go every time you leave
My heart is slowly freezing
Il nous reste encore tant de chose à vivre Une histoire qui se dessine
So far away, tu es si loin déjà
So Far Away
On peut tout refaire ou tout jeter à l'eau
Je te laisserai le temps qu'il te faut
Comme si tout s'en allait à la dérive
Le temps passe, nos coeurs s'abiment
Et je prie encore pour que tu me suives
No, I can't let go every time you leave
My heart is slowly freezing
Il nous reste encore tant de chose à vivre
Dans le rêve qui se dessine
So far away, tu es si loin déjà
So far away, et j'en oublie ta voix
So Far Away
