lyrics

Can you see a cloud in the sky?
Can you feel the rain in the green trees?
Slowly realising that I could be anywhere
And I’d rather be here

Searching for a time and a place
Learning how to speak without dead words
Turn around to look in your face and suddenly see
That I’m here on my own
Only alone

You’ve got that faraway look in your eyes again
It’s never really telling me anything
You’ve got that faraway look in your eyes again
And are you going to let me know what you’ve seen?

Silently delirious then
Quietly oblivious now
Are we getting close to the time when anything real
Starts slipping away?

You’ve got that faraway look in your eyes again
You seem to be a million miles away
You’ve got that faraway look in your eyes again
And hardly even hearing a word I say

We’ll walk along the waterway
Until we see the sea
And don’t look at the time again
Until it’s time to tell me truly

You’ve got that faraway look in your eyes again
The future in my picture will never come
You’ve got that faraway look in your eyes again
The time we have together is nearly gone

You’ve got that faraway look in your eyes again
I’m living for the memories in between
You’ve got that faraway look in your eyes again
And now I’m getting frightened of what I’ve seen
