Lyrics So Close and yet so Far Away - Strawbs

So Close and yet so Far Away

You’re my secret
You’re my inspiration
You’re my journey
You’re my destination
You have always
Been so close
And yet so far away.
You’re my best friend
You’re my total stranger
You’re my lifeline
You’re my hint of danger
You have always
Been so close
And yet so far away.
In my hour of weakness
I called on you to comfort me But you could only set me free.
You’re my memories
You’re my rock of ages
You’re my future
You’re my empty pages
You have always
Been so close
And yet so far away.
