| So Far..Far Away... Beautiful Tuesday, The sun shining bright, Soft shades of blue, filling the sky. Soft gentle breeze, so float the clouds The rustle of leaves, in the trees up above. So Far ... So far away is my mind. Screams, so shrill they fill the air along with the black where the blue had once been the crashes, the screaming, the fire & blood, a city in shock,.oh beautiful mourn. So Far... far away Green grasses dancing, the horses they graze. The cattle look like statues across the way. So peaceful, so quiet..the temperature just right. A drive to town, then to school, the day just starts. so far... so far away is the rest of the world;. A scared child wails, frantic mothers cry A noble fire fighter tries to save lives. The sky comes down, thunderous heaps Blackened the sky, the world ,,under siege.. So far,, far away The voice on the radio.. This is the news?..Another attack Those countries at war, seems for so long The innocent lives, living with war in everyday life.. So far.. So far away... I stare at the box, thats producing the sound, the voice, says " New York", not foreign land in disbelief, I stand and I stare, hot tears sting my eyes, as they roll down my face, I am feeling,, before my mind catches up This can't be real, what that voice had just said, So far... So far away.... So Touched my Heart So far... So far away..Now it seems real. The Terror, the pain, the anguish they feel.. So Far.. far awary, To far to be of much help, I send my love, and I send too my prayers I send my blood... I shed my tears.. So Far... So Far away... The facades of what worries from everyday life The simple of blue skies or clouds floating by The children that play on a swing in the park The freedom we have, the sun or the stars The little things so precious,, within our reach, we can let get to far, to far from our hearts. So Far... So far away ... our hearts D.Enise copyright 2001 |
