Long Way Away

It's a long way away
It's a long way away
And I'm all alone
Along, along a long way
There's no use in crying
No reason to wait (Long way away)
We'll not again meet
'Cause the distance is great (Long way away)
But look to the stars
Where the sun is long gone (Long way away)
And pray that your children
Do not sing this song
It's a long way away
It's a long way away
And I'm all alone
Along, along a long way
It's a long way away
It's a long way away
And I'm all alone
Along, along a long way
I'll follow the stars when the sun goes to bed
Till everything I've ever known is long dead
I can't go back home 'cause I want to be free
Someone tell the others what's become of me
