Robert Cray - Far Away Lyrics
I looked far away
I looked way into the future
What I saw was you not here with me
And when I looked inside for an answer, honey
What I have to say
What I have to say I know will hurt you
After years of love
It's hard to understand
No, that I'm not leavin' for anyone else, honey
I need to know just who I am
If it's all right with you
Gather up my things
Leave the keys on the shelf
I'll come back in the morning
When the kids awake
To tell them daddy had to go away
I'm going far away
Nothing lasts forever
I'm going far from where I used to be
I remember that young couple at the chapel
It all seems like a dream to me
I!
I didn't know myself
Never knew myself when I met you
And even now must seem like a crime
You know that I promised to love you forever
It's just forever ran out of time
So if it's all right with you
I'll just excuse myself
I'll just gather my things
The keys are on the shelf
I'll come 'round in the morning
When the kids awake
Ohhh!
To tell them daddy had to go away
Hmmmmmmm
I never knew myself
Mmmmmmmmmmmm
Know that I wanna
Mmmmmmmm
I'm gonna walk on
Far away
Ohhh, heyyyyy!
Mmmmmm
Mmmm
If it's all right with you
I'll just excuse myself
I'll just gather my things
I'll leave the keys on the shelf
I'll come back in the morning
When the kids awake
To tell them that Daddy had to go away
If it's all right with you
I'll excuse myself
If it's all right with you
I'll leave the keys on the shelf
I'll come back in the morning
When the kids awake
Mmmmmmmm
To tell them that Daddy had to go away
[whistling]
Mmmmmm
Going far away
I need to know who I am
Heyyyyyy!
Mmmmmmmmm
