Carole King and James Taylor



So Far Away
Carole King & James Taylor
So far away
Doesn't anybody stay in one place anymore
It would be so fine to see your face at my door
Doesn't help to know you're just time away

Long ago I reached for you
And there you stood
Holding you again could only do me good
Oh how I wish I could
But you're so far away

One more song about moving along the highway
Can't say much of anything that's new
If I could only work this life out my way
I'd rather spend it being close to you

But you're so far away
Doesn't anybody stay in one place anymore
It would be so fine to see your face at my door
Doesn't help to know you're so far away
Yeah
You’re so far away

Traveling around sure gets me down and lonely
Nothing else to do but close my mind
I sure hope the road don't come to own me
There's so many dreams I've yet to find

But you're so far away
Doesn't anybody stay in one place anymore
It would be so fine to see your face at my door
It doesn't help to know you're so far away
Yeah
You’re so far away
Yeah
You’re so far away

  1. A gigantic Happy (Turkey) Thanksgiving day to you and your family! You have brought two of my all time favorites.... I just may have to put on Close to you right now! Carole King- still one of my favorites, and always James Taylor (and his lovely ex-wife!) Enjoy your day in all that you do!
