[Verse 1]
She calls me from the cold
Just when I was low, feeling short of stable
And all that she intends
And all she keeps inside isn't on the label
She says she's ashamed
Can she take me for a while?
And can I be a friend?
We'll forget the past
Or maybe I'm not able
And I break at the bend
[Chorus]
We're here and now
Will we ever be again?
'Cause I have found
All that shimmers in this world is sure to fade
Away again
[Verse 2]
She dreams a champagne dream
Strawberry surprise, pink linen on white paper
Lavender and cream
Fields of butterflies, reality escapes her
She says that love is for fools that fall behind
And I'm somewhere in between
I never really know
A killer from a savior
'Til I break at the bend
[Chorus]
We're here and now
Will we ever be again?
'Cause I have found
All that shimmers in this world is sure to fade
Away again
[Refrain]
It's too far away for me to hold
It's too far away
It's too far away for me to hold
It's too far away
Ah, oh
Yeah, it's too far away for me to hold
It's too far away
Ah, ah, oh
It's too far away for me to hold
It's too far away
It's too far away for me to hold
It's too far away
Ah, ah, oh
It's too far away for me to hold
It's too far away
[Outro]
Guess I'll let it go
