"FAR AWAY"

"Some people just can't be tamed, maybe that's what makes them so appealing.
This Journey style rocker has an 'anthem' like sweep, in it's chord modulations."

EVER SINCE I'VE KNOWN HER
I KNEW THERE'D COME A DAY
WHEN HER RESTLESS WANDERLUST
WOULD TAKE HER HEART AWAY
I WON'T TRY TO HOLD HER, SIGH OR SHED A TEAR
FOR THE WIND HAS TOLD ME, DESTINY IS NEAR

bridge...
AS SHE SLOWLY FADES AWAY
YOU KNOW THAT I WON'T GRIEVE...

chorus...
'CAUSE SHE'S FAR AWAY FROM ME
FROM HERE & ALL MY DREAMS
YOU KNOW IT'S PLAIN TO SEE
THAT SHE'S FAR AWAY FROM ME
IF I EVER FIND HER, IT'S BECAUSE OF DESTINY
SHE'S FAR, FAR, AWAY...

SHE'S ALWAYS BEEN A GYPSY
THAT'S ROLLED FROM TOWN TO TOWN
NO ONE'S EVER TAMED HER
THOUGH THEY'VE TRIED TO TIE HER DOWN
IF YOU LOOK REAL CAREFUL, DEEP INTO HER EYES
YOU'D SEE THERE'S SOMETHING SPECIAL
THAT'S LIVED THROUGH ALL OF TIME

THE SEASONS CHANGE LESS OFTEN
THAN SHE DOES HER MIND...

(chorus - solo) bridge...
THOUGH YOU MAY HAVE THOUGHT SO
SHE WAS NEVER YOURS OR MINE
THE MOST THAT YOU CAN HOPE FOR
IS THAT SHE'LL STAY A WHILE...
