Too Far Away

Leave me here so I can cope
I have to learn to cope
Without seeing your face
Without hearing your voice
Without you sneaking up on me
When I'm not expecting to see you

When I have my back turned
Like you had yours turned
That night my eyes burned
And all that could calm me were my own tears

I used to think I could fall in love with you
If you had given me even half a chance
But now I would love to hate you
Because it would somehow make it easier
Easier to cope
With the loss of all hope

The only thing left to hope for
Is that I can get myself together
When you are away
Maybe meet the man of my dreams
When you are away
Wake up and be able to look at myself
Because you are so far away
Too far away to think about
Just about as distant as you've ever been
