All the world with eyes to see
- anyone in sight of you
Ought to plot an orbit 'round
your gravity and light
But to hear you tell it, though
this is not the case at all
you pass undisturbed, unseen
through it all in flight
With that faraway look you have
like nothing anyone's seen up close
Real enough to believe in ghosts
tell at a glance what means the most
That faraway look you have
Just the thought of closing in
feels a bit like storybooks
the kind you don't expect to end
the way they always do
World's the same in all its parts
more or less, except for one
certain people fit in strange -
pierce the whole thing through
With that faraway look you have
like nothing anyone's seen up close
Real enough to believe in ghosts
tell at a glance what means the most
That faraway look you have
Thank you.
