So far away Songtext / Lyric

Everywhere I go
Everything that I see
Every sound that fills my head
Brings it rushing back to me
You´d think
By now I know
You´d think by now I´d understand
When this yearning shows it´s face
I am nothing in it´s hand
It takes me so far away
It hist me so close to home
It brings me to that place
That I covered long ago
When I see that child
When I´m captured by her stare
No matter where I may run
I cannot hide anywhere
I´m challenged by her past
I´m challenged by her memories
I´m challenged by these feelings
That have distanced her from me
It takes me so far away
It hits me so close to home
It brings me to that place
That I covered long ago
And If I turn away
Soon it’s at my side
As if to say “your time is flying by”
And I wonder if I´ll ever
Find peace in my days
It takes me so far away
It hits me so close to home
It brings me to that place
That I covered long ago
So far away… so close to home
To that place that I covered long ago.
