Far Away
e!t Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I was blinded by your presence
I was fooled by your beauty

And now I'm falling, falling out of love

You've gone so far away
But in my mind you'll stay
I don't know when
But I'm sure




I'm gonna see you face again

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to e!t's song "Far Away" seem to be about the painful experience of losing someone you deeply love. The first two lines suggest that the singer was completely captivated by this person - perhaps even to the point of being blinded to their negative traits - because of their physical beauty or charisma. However, despite this early infatuation, the singer has now come to realize that this person is no longer in love with them, and that their relationship is falling apart. The lyrics convey a sense of deep sadness and longing, as the singer reflects on this person's absence, but also holds onto the hope that they will see them again.


The line "You've gone so far away" is particularly poignant, as it suggests that the person being addressed has not only left the singer physically, but has also emotionally withdrawn from them, leaving them feeling isolated and alone. The following line, "But in my mind you'll stay," suggests that even though this person has physically left, their memory will remain with the singer, haunting them indefinitely. Finally, the last two lines offer a glimmer of hope - the singer doesn't know when they will see this person again, but they are sure that the reunion will happen at some point. Overall, "Far Away" is a melancholy meditation on the highs and lows of love, and the lingering presence of those we have lost.
