Far And Away

Well i wish every day was a friday night

With a long weekend straight ahead

And we all lived in shining castles

And there was no such word as dead

But reality's harsh and we're all going to die

No one's come back lately to tell us otherwise

So grin and bear it and enjoy what you can

Cause too many castles are built out of sand

And there's never enough to go around anyway

I'm far and away

You spend so many nights wishing on a star

Til a cold wind reminds you that you're just right where you are

You try to avoid it, focus on what's real

But when the dollar is king, it's hard not to kneel

And we all live life wanting more and more

Everyone's a player and everyone keeps score

And television with one-way vision

Shows you all the things that you haven't got

I'm far and away

You can't sound the retreat

When it's out in the street

It's all around you, it's everywhere you go
