Eric Woolfson - (You'll Be) Far Away lyrics

The candles flicker and die The sun no longer shines But I can see more clearly Illusions fall from my eyes The truth is plain for all to see And I must stop deceiving myself Don't touch me like you used to do Don't tell me words that can't be true Don't hold me till the light of day You were in my arms last night But you were far away You were in arms last night But you were far away If I could hold back the night If I could turn back time But you're not my possession Some childhood dreams never grow Some poems will never find a rhyme But I can still want you for myself So touch me like you used to do And whisper words that can't be true And love me till the light of day Hold me in your arms tonight And take me far away Hold me in your arms tonight And I'll be far away Don't leave me till the light of day You'll be in my dreams tonight But you'll be far away You'll be in my dreams tonight But you'll be far away So very far away
