Far away where the soft winds blow Far away from it all There is a place you go Where teardrops fall
Far away in the stormy night Far away and over the wall You are there in the flickering light Where teardrops fall
We banged the drum slowly And played the fife lowly You know the song in my heart In the turning of twilight In the shadows of moonlight You can show me a new place to start
I’ve torn my clothes and I’ve drained the cup Strippin’ away at it all Thinking of you when the sun comes up Where teardrops fall
By rivers of blindness In love and with kindness We could hold up a toast if we meet To the cuttin’ of fences To sharpen the senses That linger in the fireball heat
