So Far Away Lyrics - David Gilmour

Why am I suspended here? 

Should I kid myself that I have no fear? 

I get no choice, I just have to wait 

It may already be too late 

I don't know what's going on 

She is here, but I am gone 

I am gone 

My love is lying here 

She's far away though she looks so near 

"Time will tell," she says to me 

When a warm coat is all I need 

Her peace of mind, her strength of will 

It will come, she's sure it will 

But how can I put my mind at rest? 

I feel I'm coming off second best

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

And I'm cut with my own knife 

Is this a dream or is it real life? 

Oh, sleep, come on me soon 

I can't bear this lonely room 

Look at that hair lying there 

The room is dark, she shows no fear 

I'm lying still, my eyes are wide 

My heart is pumping, I'm still alive 

I'm still awake against my will 

What will it ever take to still 

This burning in me? 

And I'm cut with my own knife 

Is this a dream or is it real life? 

Oh, sleep, come on me soon 

I can't bear this lonely room

Sleep, come on me soon 

I can't bear this lonely room 

Sleep, don't take too long 

Can't you sing this lonely song 

Ooh, oh, oh, oh 

Ooh, oh, ooh, ooh 

Sleep, come on me soon
