"Far Away Nearby" lyrics

"Far Away Nearby"

Little boy sits by the light of the moon
Knows that he's lost something precious too soon
And he's quietly singing a nursery tune
Sings for whoever may hear him

Then one day he finds for whatever it's worth
The moon and the stars and the blue spinning earth
They'll all come and go through death and rebirth
And the ones that he's lost will be near him

He says no matter the distance they put in between us
Whether on earth or on high
I send up a prayer if you blow me some kisses
From the far away nearby, bye, bye

So whether you're weary or cold as a stone
Baby, maybe you're reeling in feeling alone
But remember your sadness, well it isn't unknown
Just think of the ones that you're missing

They says no matter the distance they put in between us
Whether on earth or on high
I send up a prayer if you blow me some kisses
From far away

You can hear them all singing and dancing
Kicking up their heels from across the divide
Listen, you can hear the music playing
Calling out to someone from the other side

Yeah, no matter the distance they put in between us
Whether on earth or on high
I send up a prayer if you blow me some kisses
From the far away nearby, bye, bye
