the faraway nearby

Singer:cyndi lauper

out in the faraway nearby

can your hear my call

out in the faraway nearby

i'm breaking down the walls

till you're here to stay

out from the faraway

hot looks

cold words

don't know what it is you heard

but i didn't mean it

if i said something wrong

short nights

long dreams

something happens in between

then a weird feeling

like you're here but still you're gone

oo

heart beats

like a knock on the door

but it sounds so faraway

in the faraway nearby

can your hear me call

out in the faraway nearby

i'm breaking down the walls

till you're here to stay

out from the faraway

big whisper

small scream

but it's not like what it seems

locked up in the open

don't know which way to go

deserts

oceans

leaving footprints in the sand

hoping that you'll see them

and wishing you'd follow

and walk with me hand in hand

ya-ha

and talk with me you got a plan

ah-ha

and hold me

and hold me

don't stop. in the faraway nearby

can you here me call
