Denison Witmer
"So Far Away"

(Carole King)

So far away
Doesn't anybody stay in one place anymore
It used to be so fine to see your face at my door
Doesn't help to know you're just time away

Long ago I reached for you and there you stood
Holding you again could only do me good
Oh, how I wish I could, you're so far away

One more song about moving along down the highway
I can't say much of anything that's new
If I could only work this life out my way
I'd rather spend it close to you
But you're so far away

Traveling around sure gets me down and lonely
Nothing left to do but close my mind
I sure hope the road don't come to own me
There's so many dreams I've yet to find

But you're so far away
Doesn't anybody stay in one place anymore
It used to be so fine to see your face at my door
Doesn't help to know you're so far away
You're so far away
You're so far away
