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
