This is my promise to write to you So for you my every word Is the sinking feeling here in my chest I am so far from home but the further away we are the closer I am The closer I feel, the further you get My hands hold on tight to your every word I won't

You may be far away But you're never far from home No matter where I go No, you're never far from home Some days I like the ocean It never seems to end So help me through the motions Until I see you again Come be by my side

Your heaven's trying everything To break me down 'Cause it's almost like And I can't seem to find my way home To keep me out Your heavens trying everything Another day in this carnival of souls Another nights ends, end as quickly as it goes The memories

Oh oh oh oh ho oh Happy alone Sharing a smile So far from home I want in like a substitute I've been working awful hard for you But you don't say, you just hold your breath So I can't touch what I haven't yet She's a cold one and it hurts me so

To make it grow, just say hello And we're not alone Try to plant a seed, fulfill the need And though you're far from home try to learn what you could be Your heart will tell you everything you need Here we go, ain't it grand Here we stand on foreign sand

Oh I'm far away from home Oh it's a fool's lullaby I'm so alone Far away from home I gave you all The best years of my life Baby, take another chance And give it one more try

All the world is sad and lonely now Everywhere I roam (roam, roam, roam) Keep on telling you my darlin' (darlin') How my heart is going sad (so sad) So sad and lonely Because I'm so far (so far) So far from my folks back home, yeah Do you know way down

Save me save me save me I can't face this life alone I'm naked and I'm far from home It started off so well They said we made a perfect pair I clothed myself in your glory and your love How I loved you How I cried The years of care and loyalty

Go home again Go back to your friends Go back and repair your heart He was a boy Who felt like a man She was a girl From a far away land Far more beautiful Than the picture in his hand

Will live for you before I die But if I can I swear that I Maybe I said the right things wrong But one last shot was too far gone Maybe I pushed you way too far To pull you back from where you are Find my way home I’m out here on my own I’m giving it a
