"Vista Verde (So Far, So Good)" lyrics

I lost track of all your days
Been so long now that you've been away
Every season came and went
You fade into backgrounds once again

Still, so far, so good
And I wish you knew I would
Take it all back if I could
And I wish I could explain all this back then
Where have you been?
Now, the time has gone and passed
Eighteen years just gone too fast
Like the time you spend at home, it just won't last
Where have you been?

Fading of family portraits
Memories I'd love to forget
So take all that you need
Just don't take it from me
Rehearsed apologies
Spill your lies through smiling teeth
You're pulling at the strings, no longer bound to me

Still, so far, so good
And I wish you knew I would
Take it all back if I could
And I wish I could explain all this back then
Where have you been?
Now, the time has gone and passed
Eighteen years just gone too fast
Like the time you spend at home, it just won't last
Where have you been?
Where have you been?

And now my days drag on
Another summer's come and gone again
I'm wondering, where have you been?
I watched the seasons come and go
But still, you haunt me like a ghost
Again, I'm wondering, where have you been?

Where have you been?
