Lyrics Kathy Mattea

Kathy Mattea

Further and Further Away

I can see the place where I came from

I can hear those sounds right now

I can find the path I used to run

And believe I still know how

Then I shake my head

Clearing my vision

I keep those scenes at bay

And I can see the place where I came from

Slipping further and further away

I can feel the way I used to feel

The world was small and green

And you sang a song of soft appeal

And I curled into my dream

Then I shake my head

Clearing my vision

I keep those scenes at bay

And I can feel the way I used to feel

Slippin' further and further away

Time keeps movin' faster and faster

I'm not losing track

Oh, I'm afraid that something's forgotten

So I keep looking back

I can hear the songs you used to sing

I can swear I won't let go

You were strong and you knew everything

Back before I had to know

Then I shake my head

Clearing my vision

I keep those scenes at bay

And I can hear the songs you used to sing

Slipping further and further away

Yes I can hear the songs you used to sing

Slipping further and further away
