SONG: SO FAR AWAY (ACOUSTIC)
ALBUM: 14 Shades of Grey
I wouldn't post a song i wasn't sure was right unless i've played it out. Its a good song to sing to but
you will find that the chorus will affect your voice so play it in the middle of your set when your voice
is warm but not worn out. Enjoy.

LYRICS:
"So Far Away"
this is my life
its not what it was before
all these feelings i've shared
and these are my dreams
that i'd never lived before
somebody shake me
'cause i
i must be sleeping
chorus:
now that we're here,
it's so far away
all the struggle we thought was in vain
all the mistakes,
one life contained
they all finally start to go away
now that we're here its so far away
and i feel like i can face the day i can forgive
and i'm not ashamed to be the person that i am today
these are my words
that i've never said before
i think i'm doing okay
and this is the smile
that i've never shown before
somebody shake me 'cause i
i must be sleeping
[chorus]
i'm so afraid of waking
please don't shake me
afraid of waking
please don't shake me
[chorus]
