Far and Away

If I could touch you, what would you do

smile or just fade from my eyes

If I could love you, what would you say

Sorry, I haven't the time

Far and away is the sound of your laughter

Your eyes are closed and my dream's a disaster

I turn away

Turn on your sunshine, shine on my face

light all the stars in the sky

Your words were careful, your manner was not

I masked the hurt in my eyes

Far and away is the sound of your whisper

Your body is warmth and my hands the receptors

I turned away

If you could touch me, what would I do

smile or just fade from your life

What were the reasons? What was the cause?

Where was the fire in the night?

Far and away is the sound of my sadness

Your eyes are closed and my dream's turned to madness

You turned away
