Far Away
Libera/Michael Horncastle/Fiona Pears/John Anderson/Steven Geraghty/Chris Dodd/Robert Prizeman/Ian T Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Wherever I go
Far away and anywhere
Time after time you always shine
Through dark of night calling after me

And wherever I climb
Far away and anywhere
You raise me high beyond the sky
Through stormy night lifting me above

Venite Spiritu et emitte caelitus
Venite Spiritu et emitte caelitus
Venite Spiritu Venite Spiritus
Far away beyond the sky

Whenever I cry
Far away and anywhere
You hear me call when shadows fall
Your light of hope showing me the way

Venite Spiritu et emitte caelitus
Venite Spiritu et emitte caelitus




Venite Spiritu Venite Spiritus
Far away beyond the sky

Overall Meaning

The song "Far Away" by Libera/Michael Horncastle/Fiona Pears/John Anderson/Steven Geraghty/Chris Dodd/Robert Prizeman/Ian T is a tribute to the power of love and hope that always shine through even in the darkest moments. The lyrics talk about the idea that wherever one goes, the light of love and hope follows them. The first verse talks about how this light always calls out to the individual even in the dark of night. The second verse speaks about how the light raises the individual high beyond the sky, through stormy nights and lifts them above. The chorus, which is written in Latin, means "Come, Spirit of Heaven and send forth, come Spirit, far away beyond the sky."


The second part of the song talks about how, whenever the individual cries or is in need, the light of hope and love always hears them call, showing them the way forward, even in the shadows of despair. The Latin chorus is repeated, again emphasizing the idea that the Spirit is always there, far away beyond the sky, providing a sense of comfort and guidance to those who need it.


The song is a beautiful expression of faith and hope in a higher power that guides and protects us even in the most challenging times. The use of Latin in the chorus adds to the transcendent feel of the song, making it a powerful and moving piece of music.

Wherever I go
No matter where I am,


Far away and anywhere
whether it be a distant place or right here,


Time after time you always shine
you consistently light up my world,


Through dark of night calling after me
even in the darkest hours, you call out to me,


And wherever I climb
As I move through life,

You raise me high beyond the sky
you elevate me to heights beyond my wildest imaginings,


Through stormy night lifting me above
even in times of turbulence, you lift me up and carry me through,

@@skinisdelicious3365 The reason people began hating them was stupid.

Nickelback was supposed to be a grunge band fighting against the system or some such bullshit. They never said that, people just labeled them that way.

When they signed with some advertisers, people turned against them and accused them of selling out.

Turns out that EEEEEEEVERY band does now what Nickelback did.

They didn't do anything wrong, they were just ahead of their time.... and smart.
They wanted to secure a good future.
We don't hate on bands now for signing with advertisers.

That's why it all started and it's stupid.
Even dumber is all these people saying:
"Oh yeah I hate them too....."
who haven't got the foggiest clue why.

Lemmings! >.<

This time, This place
Misused, Mistakes
Too long, Too late
Who was I to make you wait
Just one chance
Just one breath
Just in case there's just one left
Cause you know,
you know, you know

That I love you
I've loved you all along
And I miss you
been far away for far too long
I keep dreaming you'll be with me
And you'll never go
Stop breathing if
I don't see you anymore

On my knees, I'll ask
Last chance for one last dance
Cause with you, I'd withstand
All of hell to hold your hand
I'd give it all
I'd give for us
Give anything but I won't give up
'Cause you know,
You know, you know

That I love you
I've loved you all along
And I miss you
Been far away for far too long
I keep dreaming you'll be with me
And you'll never go
Stop breathing if
I don't see you anymore

So far away, so far away
Been far away for far too long
So far away, so far away
Been far away for far too long
But you know, you know, you know

I wanted
I wanted you to stay
Cause I needed
I need to hear you say
That I love you
I have loved you all along
And I forgive you
For being away for far too long
So keep breathing
Cause I'm not leaving you anymore
Believe it Hold on to me and, never let me go
Keep breathing
Cause I'm not leaving you anymore
Believe it Hold on to me and, never let me go
Keep breathing Hold on to me and, never let me go
Keep breathing Hold on to me and, never let me go
