2017 mesmi #californiacoustic cover of two classics
lyrics
so far away
doesn't anybody stay in one place anymore
it would be fine so fine to see your face at my door
but how to let you know?
when you're so
far away
& you'll kiss me and smile for me
tell me that you'll wait for me
hold me like you'll
never let me go
but you're always leaving
on a jet plane
don't know when you'll be back again
oh, it doesn't help to know
you're just time away
long ago i reached for you and there you stood
holding you again could only do me good
how i wish i could, but you're so
far away
& you'll kiss me and smile for me
tell me that you'll wait for me
hold me like you'll
never let me go
but you're always leaving
on a jet plane
don't know when you'll be back again
oh, i hate to see you go
dawn is breaking, it's early morn
taxi's waiting, he's blowing his horn
already i'm so lonesome, i could die
