So Close and yet so Far Away - Strawbs

You’re my secret

You’re my inspiration

You’re my journey

You’re my destination

You have always

Been so close

And yet so far away.

You’re my best friend

You’re my total stranger

You’re my lifeline

You’re my hint of danger

You have always

Been so close

And yet so far away.

In my hour of weakness

I called on you to comfort me But you could only set me free.

You’re my memories

You’re my rock of ages

You’re my future

You’re my empty pages

You have always

Been so close

And yet so far away.
