So Far Away
DJ Jay-D aka Mr. And-7 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The digital numbers staring at me
From the clock radio, sleep is what I ought
But it's creeping in my body, uncertainty
And I know, something is wrong
Anxiety tears me apart, what could it be?
And stay where you where mine
All misunderstandings far away
All just fine
What I'd give to touch your hand
See your smile, and hold you near
I would pay what ever to make things right
But now you're so far away
I would climb too moon
Touch sun, but I am such a fool
To let you be this far away
Far away, you're to far away
I can still remember, how you
Walked out through the door
Never touch, never feel
I will never hold you
Close to me, anymore
Memories is what is left
Thin, whitened and pale
Never talk, never see
Makes it easier to forget, forget for me
I can see how my dreams
I can see how my visions come undone
And turn to rotting pieces, falling down
Falling down like pouring rain
But it won't wash away my pain
I will drown, like in a flood
But even than, I won't give up
I wish I could turn back time
And stay where you where mine
All misunderstandings far away
All just fine
What I'd give to touch your hand
See your smile, and hold you near
I would pay what ever to make things right
But now you're so far away
I would climb too moon
Touch sun, but I am such a fool
To let you be this far away
Far away, you're to far away

Far away, you're to far away
The person is too distant from me
I can still remember, how you
I can still clearly recall how you
Walked out through the door
You left through the door and never came back
Never touch, never feel
We never had the chance to physically touch or feel each other
I will never hold you
I will never have the opportunity to embrace you
Close to me, anymore
We will never be close to each other again
Memories is what is left
All that remains between us are memories
Thin, whitened and pale
These memories have become faint and colorless over time
Never talk, never see
We no longer communicate or spend time together
Makes it easier to forget, forget for me
This lack of communication and interaction makes it easier for me to try and forget
I can see how my dreams
I can envision how my hopes and dreams
I can see how my visions come undone
Are slowly falling apart and failing to come to fruition
And turn to rotting pieces, falling down
My aspirations are deteriorating and crumbling away
Falling down like pouring rain
My dreams are falling down on me like rain
But it won't wash away my pain
These failed dreams will not cleanse me of my distress
I will drown, like in a flood
I feel overwhelmed and suffocated by my emotions, akin to drowning in a flood
But even than, I won't give up
Despite the overwhelming nature of my distress, I refuse to give up and will persist in trying to mend the situation
