I left you on a midnight train, heading West
Leaving you far behind I thought the best
But you're so far away
But you're so far away
You're so, far away
You're so, far away

I left you on a midnight train, heading West
Leaving you far behind I thought the best
I left you in the pouring rain, like the rest
Leaving you far behind with regrets

Don't you tell me that you [bad word] home
Feeling lovesick after being alone
Don't you tell me that you [bad word] back
If you did I wouldn't know how to act (x2)

But you're so far away
But you're so far away
You're so, far away
You're so, far away

You're... so
far a... way

I wait for you
Hoping [bad word] back my way
I wait for you
Every single day

I wait for you
Hoping [bad word] my way
I wait for you
Every single day

...but you're so far away
