You often
sit staring way out in space
When you turn and look at me
It's like you'd rather see
some other space.
When I take you to the movies,
you no longer reach for my hand.
There's a feeling running through me,
I'm trying hard to understand.
We think so far away
from where we wanted to go
Like two mountain climber
s lost in the snow
Bewildered and confused
So far away from
sweet yesterday
When I thought our
love would stay
But I find today it's
so far away
I overheard the news
from some of your friends
They said I was losing out
Your new love was moving in
You won't talk to me about it
And baby I sure can read your mind
But this distance that's between us
Keeps getting further all the time
And oh, you're so far away
Even when you're in my arms,
I can feel that the thrill is gone.
It's just a role you play.
And oh, you're so far away
from all the joy that we've known.
Our plans and dreams are
all but gone
They're slipping away
So far away
So far away
Oh, we're so far away
from sweet yesterday
When the song was ours to play
Now the melody fades,
fading so far away
It's fading, fading so far away you
