----- la la la la la
shes so far away yeah shes in america
and the water is wide but i love you my love
its been so long now since we held one another
yuore stll a part of my drams youre so far away
remember each day its better this way
lets live the now forget about historie
now you know we cant live in the past
this is reality
got no control over the things that happen
and all the hurt that love can bring
youre so far away remember each day
its better this way
i remember all this times we went sailing on the moon
bm7 d e--
and love came down to see us ewerywhere
yes ewerywhere
now it all seems so wrong that we have to be apart
but tomorrow weel walk in the sun and ill love you my love
together we can write a different storie
that never comes to an end
youre so far away remember each day
its better this way
