You asked me to wait for you,
Just something that you had to do,
To take a break and find your way;
A new place, on your own

You wouldn't say how long,
Insisted nothing's wrong
But all my doubts come flooding out
To drown me once again

So long, so far away (Don't let it be forever)
Somehow, I hope someday (Maybe you'll be right there)

So now I sit and stare,
When nothing's even there
Is this heart of mine
Just wasting time
On something it can't change?

So long, so far away (Don't let it be forever)
Somehow, I hope someday (Maybe you'll be right there)

It may be forever,
But that seems so long
Maybe tomorrow you'll be right there,
And none of this will matter

But I can't chase dreams
When nothing's as it seems
But to live somehow,
In the here and now,
Is more than I can take

So long, so far away (Don't let it be forever)
Somehow, I hope someday (Maybe you'll be right there)
