Far Away, By My Side lyrics

Go away from the window, babe,

Take a look at what's inside

And take a look into my eyes

Far away, but by my side

I'm finding ways to move away

This is the closest that we'll ever get

And we're not close at all

And still you seem to know it all

Far away, but by my side

I keep you at a distance from me

Push another old cliché out of the couch

And try to feed another mouth

And see how well you'll do

I'm not competing with her odds,

I only know that this feels good

I don't have to be so clever, babe

Can't get it out of my head, a tone in a voice

Annoying alarm bells, bathroom noise

I'm leaving it behind

Still I need to be found by someone

Seal another envelope, don't send it,

Keep it in the desk,

And hope it won't be needed to be read

I’m not competing with her odds,

I only know that this feels good

I don't have to be so clever, babe
