I lay awake,
I'm yawning,
it's the morning of our friend
Weary wasted
Wednesday rain is pouring
on my head
When I saw you yesterday,
did I look into your eyes?
I should have stayed a little longer,
how could I have been so blind?
I wish I could have heard
it straight from you
Instead we laugh a day away
And we're howling at the moon
You're so far away
Now you've gone to stay
I hope our paths can cross
again sometime
Are you happy now?
Can I always play the crown?
I wish that you could hear me sing
this song
I remember we walked the streets
And our souls came off our shoes
And I won't forget
crazy times we had
And all the girls we knew
I guess there are some secrets
That never melt in
Now you don't have
to fight no more wars
Or climb above the hill
You're so far away,
now you're gonna stay
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
that will make your soul slide
But if you have so much to carry,
I'll be right by your side
There's an old expression
They say you could have died young
An d it makes you
wonder about this old world
And if all the good is gone
You're so far away
And now you're gone home to stay
I wish that I could see you
one more time
Cause you're so far away
You know I'll be with you one day
I've seen so close
but I know you're so far away
So far away
So far away
See when I saw you yesterday
So far away
You told me to go away
So far away
Such a high price to pay
So far away
How could you go away
So I'll see you tomorrow
So far away
So far away
So far away
I wish that I could
see you one more time
I lay with the young
and it's the morning of our friend
