NOT THAT FAR AWAY

NOT THAT FAR AWAY

Not That Far Away

One shining star

Shining your own light

Up there on the stage

And silver screen

Watching in the wings

Never saying a word

Not my world

Yours my shining star

Then the tables turned

You were watching

Following

Events, situations

All the way through

Heck you scared me almost to death

Now I hear those three little words

And you have mine

So now what happens?

What has changed?

Or has it?

No judge or jury

Can fix this one

Or can they?

Not a chance!

This world has changed

From this date on

I am scared

Upside down

Inside out

So afraid

Time to come out in the open

No more up there either

And the using the in-betweeners

So please get on that flight

And come here to me

So that we can speak

Face to face

Do the right thing

Either ring or knock that door

No more messing

Any more

I love you too

Have done for more than you will ever know
