lyrics

laying on a sequence chest
looking through a looking glass
cause you're so far away
the cab took you away
speck on the horizon
time took you away
and the days when you were mine seem so far away

back's to the window snow
surrounded by your videos
cause you're so far away
the train took you away
speck on the horizon
belongs to yesterday
and the days when you were mine seem so far away

and I'll go where you'd go
if it was up to me
I'd lay on the railway
but it's not...
it's not up to me

rubber cups surround my head
I'm playing back the things you said
cause you're so far away
the plane took you away
speck on the horizon
time took you away
and the days when you were mine seem so far away
and the days when you were mine seem so far away
and the days when you were mine seem so far away
