So far
Roger Whittaker · Other Songs - Roger Whittaker
So fary, oh so fary,
so fary, oh so fary,
so fary, oh so fary,
so far away.
I lay me down I feel so tiered.
It's been so long, since I rested up
and I try to carry on.
I lay me down and sit beneath
an old thorn tree and I wonder why,
she made such a fool on me.
I've come so far and I followed my heart,
travel so far, travel so far.
It's not so easy to follow your heart,
when you don't know,
when you don't know the reason to be a part.
Cohr:
So fary, oh so fary,
so fary, far away.
I came so far to find my dream, my hope of light.
Now I lay me down with my world so full of strife.
She lift's me up, she puts me down, now I don't know.
Oh I've come so far but there's still so far to go.
I've come so far and I followed my heart,
travel so far, travel so far.
It's not so easy to follow your heart,
when you don't know,
when you don't know the reason to be a part.
I've come so far and I followed my heart,
travel so far, travel so far.
It's not so easy to follow your heart,
when you don't know,
when you don't know the reason to be a part,
when you don't know the reason to be a part.
Cohr:
So fary, oh so fary,
so far away.
