Far Away
Composer(s): Astrud Gilberto; Hal Shaper
Performer(s): Astrud Gilberto



Far away you seem so far away
When it was only yesterday
That you were oh so close to me

So close that every sigh
Was like the whisper of a lover's lullaby
The way the ocean loves the edges of the sky
As close as we could be

But now you're far away
So far away you're like a distant star away
And even though your hands could touch me if they tried
When love has died what more is there to say

I only know you're so far away
You're long ago, so far away

Far away, so far away

But now you're far away
So far away you're like a distant star away
And even though your hands could touch me if they tried
When love has died what more is there to say

I only know you're oh so far away
You're long ago and oh so far away
Oh so far away

Far away, so far away
