Far Away

Fields are deathly quiet
 Where the cotton used to grow
 I'm a stranger in a land
 That I used to know
 In a land
 A land I've not forgotten
 Look away
 Far Away
 Everything has changed here
 "Cept some things inside of me
 I've hid 'em from the world
 Kept them under lock and key
 Like the sound of my mama's voice
 Callin' me back home
 To the place
 Where I belong
 Far Away
 Far Away
 Don't know why I left you
 And look how long I've stayed
 Far away
 Far away
 How'd I get so far away
 Carved my name one Sunday morning
 On a sweet magonia tree
 I cried when I walked away
 Broke my heart to leave
 Took that little piece of me
 Put it in my pocket
 I've lost myself a time or two
 And I never once forgot it
 Far away
 Far away
 Don't know why I left you
 And look how long I've stayed
 Far away
 Far away
 How'd I get so far away
 Far away
 Far away
 Don't know why I left you
 But look how long I've stayed
 Far away
 Far away
 How'd I get so far away
 How did I get so far away
