but you're so far away

leaning up against the old oak tree

singing a simple love song

with my guitar resting on my knee

looking at the horizon

while I'm looking for you

seeing the frost in the air

feeling the chill of the morning dew

so close

but you're so far away

and I can remember the last words I heard you say

come away

come outside and let's play

you know we have the entire day

so give me one last kiss

something special to reminisce

settle down beside my side

there is nothing we have to hide

along the free-flowing river and along the shore

one little kiss and then another one more

it's you that I adore

leaning up against the old oak tree

singing a simple love song

with my guitar resting on my knee

looking at the horizon

while I'm looking for you

seeing the frost in the air

feeling the chill of the morning dew

so close

but you're so far away

and I can remember the last words I heard you say

come away

come outside and let's play.
