FAR AWAY 
(Jimmy Van Heusen / David Kapp)

as recorded by Jane Morgan
1958


A wave breaks on a far away shore,
Far away but it touches me now,
And wind lifts rain from a far away sea, Far away, but it rains not on me!
Wind and rain, earth and sky,
Far away, far away!

A sigh comes from a far away blue,
And the sigh is you
And it touches on me,
And it rains on me,
And the wind and the rain and the earth and the sky, Far away, are here!

And it rains on me,
And the wind and the rain and the earth and the sky, Far away, are here!
