Lyrics

Running away
running away
running away now
Left my home
oh I'm halfway
down the road now
Plenty to say but
too tough to get
the words out
So I'm running away
running away
running away now
There's a long dark road
and a shadow cold following me
My feet are tired
my heart is weak
Heavy tides coming over me
Oh my
So say goodbye honey
or say don't
you gotta tell me now
cause I need to know
Nothing to say
wanted to stay
never knew my heart
could break this way
Goodbye honey
I guess it's so
you need me now
but I've gotta go
Just know
It's a cold cold world
without you near
It's a cold cold world
without you my dear
Oh...
Far and away
far and away
far and away now
It's a fresh new town
and on the way down
I surf on a sofa
Every day
I find a way
just to feel closer
far and away
far and away
fare and away now
My mind's a nest
for the birds of prey
circling me
My hands are tired
my voice won't speak
and I stare at things that
I'm supposed to eat
So say goodbye honey
or say don't
you gotta tell me now
cause I need to know
Nothing to say
wanted to stay
never knew my heart
could break this way
Goodbye honey
I guess it's so
you need me now
but I've gotta go
Just know
It's a cold cold world
without you near
It's a cold cold world
without you my dear
Oh...
Just know
It's a cold cold world
without you near
It's a cold cold world
without you my dear
Just know
It's a cold cold world
without you near
It's a cold cold world
without you my dear
Oh just know
It's a cold cold world
without you near
It's a cold cold world
without you my dear
Oh just know
It's a cold cold world
without you near
It's a cold cold world
without you my dear
So say goodbye honey
or say don't
you gotta tell me now
cause I need to know
Nothing to say
wanted to stay
never knew my heart
could break this way
Goodbye honey
I guess it's so
you need me now
but I've gotta go
Just know
It's a cold cold world
without you near
It's a cold cold world
without you my dear
Oh...
