So Far Away by Bill Sutton Lyrics

I'm so far away
She's so far away
Why did I run away from her?
There was a better way
Why did she choose to stay?
I still had things to say to her

Stars and night and glimpse of Hell
Trapped inside a starship shell

Across the starry sea
At nine tenths of cee
My only family and home
How was I to see
She needed more than me
When she was all I'd ever known?

Stars and night and glimpse of Hell
Trapped inside a starship shell

Came the day the crew
Brought a world to view
A world Man never knew before
Hеr importance grew
She had a job to do
Shе didn't need me anymore
A year passed quickly and our ship made plans to go
Though some would choose to stay behind
We fought and I chose space while she chose sky and stone
And we would never change our minds

It's been a year for me
To her, a half century
Too many years between us now
Through my tears I see
That was where I should be
I only wish that I knew how

Stars and night and glimpse of Hell
Trapped inside a starship shell

Stars and night and glimpse of Hell
Trapped inside a starship shell
