    Lyrics:
    Here I am again in this mean old town
    And you’re so far away from me
    And where are you when the sun goes down
    You’re so far away from me
    So far away from me
    So far I just can’t see
    So far away from me
    You’re so far away from me
    I’m tired of being in love and being all alone
    When you’re so far away from me
    I’m tired of making out on the telephone
    And you’re so far away from me
    So far away from me
    So far I just can’t see
    So far away from me
    You’re so far away from me
    I get so tired when I have to explain
    When you’re so far away from me
    See you been in the sun and I’ve been in the rain
    And you’re so far away from me
    So far away from me
    So far I just can’t see
    So far away from me
    You’re so far away from me

    So Far Away
    Here I am again in this mean old town
    And you're so far away from me
    And where are you when the sun goes down
    You're so far away from me
    So far away from me
    So far I just can't see

    I know this is a love song but it makes me think of God. Ever since I became Christian I wanted to see Jesus in the flesh like Mary Magdalen and the 12 after the resurrection. I only have in visions. It makes me miss Him and grieve. Like He's so far from me that I cannot touch Him. It's like looking at old photographs of my grandpa but I only get to see them every once in a while and only when He shows me. Absence makes the heart grow fonder. I am a man of many faults but no one do I love as I do Jesus. Only times I've ever dry heaved in anguish was seeing Him in the the spirit and my grandpa in an open casket. When you see Him on the cross you will mourn like a mother who has lost her only child. There is no other love like the love of Christ Jesus. So powerful thoughts of Him would even invade the lyrics of a love song like this one. Jehovah Sneaky

    When I was in the military service (1986-1988) I've listened this song for 10 times per day. I was a close friend with the DJ of the barracks. We had a choice between the music from the only state radio station at the time where there were only news about the great achievements of communism and patriotic music, and some tapes brought by some of us. The choice was very simple and natural - the few tapes were listened and re-listened to dozens and hundreds of times. 😊

    This song takes me to a distant and lost time that no longer exists, scored many a time that there was in the past, very exciting!

      So glad someone said that!... when they put the 12 inch on in season 4; a brilliant song for that moment!

    The song is so mesmerizing,
    it really just takes me back in time it reminds me of all the important people in my life who I once really cared about! It makes you feel like you're really right back there living it all over again embracing it all, but in all reality it's still so far away from you! 🌋🌋
