The Streets - So Far Away lyrics

What became of you and me is history Stop living in the past You think it's easy I second guessed you for so long I didn't know what was going on Well now I've seen just where I've been I'm on the rebound once again We came so close to love Before you walked away Now broken promises Are all I've got today Chalk it up to a lesson learned Maybe next time love will stay So close, so far away So close, so far away I can reach out for someone else A pretty stranger in the night But I think I need some time It's still doesn't feel right After love has come and gone You realize that you must be strong Is that what love is for Or does it matter anymore We came so close to love Before you walked away Now broken promises Are all I've got today Chalk it up to a lesson learned Maybe next time love will stay So close, so far away So close, so far away You got to be a survivor It ain't that easy It's not the first time It's probably not the last Two storied circles Embrace each other Jump it in and hold on tight Because we came so close So close, so far away So close, so far away So close, so far away So close, so far away So close, so far away So close, so far away So close, so far away So close, so far away
