Cave Nick Far From Me Lyrics

Far From Me Lyrics

For you, dear, I was born
For you, I was raised up
For you I've lived and
for you I will die
For you I am dying now
You were my mad little
lover
In a world where everybody fucks everybody else over
You who are so
far from me,
so far from me
Way across some cold neurotic sea
Far from
me
I would talk to you of all manner of things
With a smile you would
reply
Then the sun would leave your pretty face
And you'd retreat from
the front of your eyes
I keep hearing that you're doing your best
I hope
your heart beats happy,
In your infant breast
You are so far from
me,
far from me , far from me
There is no knowledge but I know
it
There's nothing to learn from that vacant voice
That sails to me
across the line
From ridiculous to sublime
It's good to hear you're doing
so well dear
But really can't you find somebody else that you can ring and
tell
Did you ever care for me ?
Were you ever there for me ?
So far
from me
You told me you'd stick by me
Through the thick and through the
thin
Those were your very words
My fair-weather friend
You were my
brave-hearted lover
At the first taste of trouble went running back to
mother
So far from me, far from me
Suspended in your bleak and fishless
sea
Far from me, far from me
