Far Away

It's a struggle just to stay alive A brute force wind keeps us huddled inside While the ship is going under The violence will tear us asunder And the land is too far away, land is too far away Would you, please, promise me You'll come back to stay Before you're too far away? There's a time in every person's life You think you've got it figured like 3-4-5 But now the city's burning down To the sea or higher ground But the sea is too far away, higher ground's far away Would you, please, promise me You'll come back to stay Before you're too far away? When the sea rises up to swallow you The wind so cold it hollows you A new day will dawn just to keep up the fight In the end you'll know whether you were right We were never going down for the count We were always going all ten rounds 'Cause our dreams aren't too far away Our dreams are not far away Would you please promise me You'll come back to stay? You're never too far away
