So Far Away

What, am I suspended here?

Should I kid myself that I have no fear?

I get no choice, I just have to wait

It may already be too late

I don't know what's goin' on

She is here, but I am gone

I am gone

My love is lyin' here

She's far away though she looks so near

"Time will tell", she says to me

When a warm coat is all I need

Her peace of mind, her strentgh of will

It will come, she's sure it will

But how can I put my mind at rest?

I feel I'm comin' off second best

And I'm cut with my own knife

Is this a dream or is it real life?

Oh, sleep, come on me soon

I can't bear this lonely room

Look at that hand lying there

The room is dark, she shows no fear

I'm lying still, my eyes are wide

My heart is pumpin', I'm still alive

I'm still awake against my will

What will it ever take to still this burning in me?

And I'm cut with my own knife

Is this a dream or is it real life?

Oh, sleep, come on me soon

I can't bear this lonely room

Sleep, come on me soon

I can't bear this lonely room

Sleep, don't take too long

Can't keep singing this lonely song

Sleep, come on me soon
