So Far Away
Carole King
From the Album-"Tapestry"
1971
Written by Carole King
So far away doesn't anybody stay
In one place anymore
It would be so fine to see
Your face at my door doesn't help to know
You're just time away long ago I reached
For you and there you stood
Holding you again could only do me good
How I wish I could but you're so far away
One more song about moving along the highway
Can't say much of anything that's new
If I could only work this life out my way
I'd rather spend it bein' close to you
But you're so far away doesn't anybody stay
In one place anymore it would be so fine to
See your face at my door doesn't help to know
You're just time away yeah you're so far away
Travelin' around sure gets me down and lonely
Nothin' else to do but close my mind
I sure hope the road don't come to own me
There's so many dreams I've yet to find
But you're so far away > Repeat and fade
