Lyrics
I lay awake, I'm yawning
It's the mourning of a friend
A weary wasted Wednesday rain
Is pouring on my head
When I saw you yesterday
Did I look into your eyes
I should have stared a little longer
How could I have been so blind
I wish I could have heard it straight from you
But instead we laughed the day away
And went howling at the moon
Chorus
You're so far away
Now you've gone to stay
Hope our paths can cross again sometime
Are you happy now?
You always played the crowd
I wish that you could hear me sing this song
I remember we walked the streets
Til the soles came off our shoes
And I won't forget the crazy times we had
And all the girls we knew
I guess there are some secrets a rebel never tells
Now you don't have to fight no more wars
Or climb another hill
Chorus II
You're so far away
Now you've gone to stay
I wish that I could see you one more time
Are you happy there
In the middle of my prayers
You seem so close, but I know you're so far away
There's an old expression
Only the strong survive
But if you had to much to carry
I'd have been right by your side
Chorus III
You're so far away
Now you've gone to stay
I wish that I could see you one more time
You're so far away
I hope to be with you one day
You seem so close, but I know you're so far away
I lay awake, I'm yawning
It's the mourning of a friend~
