Further and Further Away
I can see the place where I came from
I can hear those sounds right now
I can find the path I used to run
And believe I still know how
Then I shake my head
Clearing my vision
I keep those scenes at bay
And I can see the place where I came from
Slipping further and further away
I can feel the way I used to feel
The world was small and green
And you sang a song of soft appeal
And I curled into my dream
Then I shake my head
Clearing my vision
I keep those scenes at bay
And I can feel the way I used to feel
Slippin' further and further away
Time keeps movin' faster and faster
I'm not losing track
Oh, I'm afraid that something's forgotten
So I keep looking back
I can hear the songs you used to sing
I can swear I won't let go
You were strong and you knew everything
Back before I had to know
Then I shake my head
Clearing my vision
I keep those scenes at bay
And I can hear the songs you used to sing
Slipping further and further away
Yes I can hear the songs you used to sing
Slipping further and further away
