( Verse 1 )
The night is colder than it used to be,
Your shadows linger here inside of me.
I hold your picture in a trembling hand,
Trying to find a place to understand.
The wind keeps whispering the things we said,
Your laughter echoes in my empty bed.
I close my eyes but nothing fills the space—
It’s only memories I chase.
( Pre-Chorus )
And every heartbeat falls like rain,
Calling your name again…
( Chorus ) (BIG, emotional, soaring)
You’re so far away,
But you live inside my soul.
And no matter where you go,
You’re the fire I can’t let go.
You’re so far away,
Yet I reach for you each day—
’Cause my world just turns to gray
When you’re so far away.
( Verse 2 )
The morning breaks but I don’t feel the light,
It fades before it touches me inside.
I walk the streets where we once used to be,
Every corner still remembers you and me.
And though the distance stretches endlessly,
Your heartbeat stays in perfect time with me.
I try to stand, but fall before I start—
You’re the missing rhythm of my heart.
( Pre-Chorus )
I hear your voice across the sky,
And I can’t stop asking why…
( Chorus )
You’re so far away,
But you live inside my soul.
And no matter where you go,
You’re the fire I can’t let go.
You’re so far away,
Yet I reach for you each day—
’Cause my world just turns to gray
When you’re so far away.
( Bridge ) (dramatic, strings rising, emotional peak)
I would cross a thousand oceans,
Break the silence, lift the night.
If your heart could hear my calling,
I would bring you back to life.
No distance deep enough,
No darkness strong enough—
To steal away our love…
( Final Chorus ) (KEY CHANGE – huge, powerful)
You’re so far away,
But your light still leads me home.
Though the nights feel so alone,
You’re the truth I’ve always known.
You’re so far away,
Yet I feel you when I pray—
And I swear I’ll find a way
Though you’re so far away.
( Outro ) (soft fade, piano + strings)
Still I whisper out your name…
You’re so far away…
But my heart will stay the same.
