So Far Away

(Verse 1)

My Truck breaks down on the edge of town

You’re yawning while the sun goes down

You tell a joke about a man you saw

I laugh but can see through it all

You’re humming along to a song

Acting like nothing can go wrong.

(Chorus)

But there’s a sadness to your smile

It’s been growing there for awhile

In a house with the curtains drawn

On the coldest hour before dawn

You’re shining bright, honey, I can see

But your worlds so far away from me

(Verse 2)

I see it in how you hold your glass

Waiting for the dark clouds to pass

It’s inside where the laughter dies

The hidden pain behind your eyes

You say you’re fine, you’re not alright

Withdrawing from the sounds of night

(Bridge)

It’s the worst kind of weight to bear

To look so happy and pretend to care

You’ve got the mask to hide the hate

But I can sense the pain under the weight

You don’t have to hide the rain from me

Ohhh Don’t hide the rain from me

I’m not looking for a symphony.

(Guitar Solo / Instrumental Break)

(Chorus)

But there’s a sadness to your smile

It’s been growing there for awhile

In a house with the curtains drawn

On the coldest hour before dawn

You’re shining bright, honey, I can see

But your worlds so far away from me

(Outro)

Ohhh Just let it fall, let it fall

The world won’t end if you lose it all

Let it fall, ohh let it fall

I’ll stay right here through the grey

Until the sadness fades away

Fades away...
