Far Far
Yael Naïm Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Far far, there's this little girl
She was praying for something to happen to her
Everyday she writes words and more words
Just to speak out the thoughts that keep floating inside.
And she's strong when the dreams come cos' they
Take her, cover her, they are all of her.
The reality looks far now, but don't go
How can you stay outside?
There's a beautiful mess inside
How can you stay outside?
There's a beautiful mess inside
Oh oh oh oh

Far far, there's this little girl
She was praying for something good to happen to her
From time to time there're colors and shapes
Dazzling her eyes, tickeling her hands
They invent her a new world with
Oil skies and aquarelle rivers
But don't you run away already
Please don't go oh oh

How can you stay outside?
There's a beautiful mess inside
How an you stay outside?
There's a beautiful mess inside
Take a deep breath and dive
There's a beautiful mess inside
How can you stay outside?
There's a beautiful mess,
Beautiful mess inside.

Oh beautiful, beautiful

Far far there's this little girl
She was praying for something big to happen to her
Every night she hears beautiful strange music
It's everywhere there's nowhere to hide
But if it fades she begs
"oh lord don't take it from me, don't take it she says"

I guess I'll have to give it birth
To give it birth
I guess, I guess, I guess I have to give it birth
I guess I have to, have to give it birth
There's a beautiful mess inside and it's everywhere

So shake it yourself now deep inside
Deeper than you ever dared
Deeper than you ever dared




There's a beautiful mess inside
Beautiful mess inside

This song has been so healing for me in a dark time of self-doubt and feeling worthless 10 years ago. It was as if some angels were whispering to my ears. So my mess could be beautiful?! It was the starting point of my journey deciding to dive and love my inner world and myself and embrace fully who I am. I now accompany people to do the same....with this song still in my head! I love discovering people's beautiful mess and perfectly imperfect worlds!
