Lyrics
From far away I?m callin?, as your memories cloud my mind
From far away I?m callin?, as your memories cloud my mind
And I see better from a distance
And I see myself in a stranger?s eyes as he passes me by

And I see sometimes more than others
And I see myself in a stranger?s eyes as he passes me by
From far away I?m callin?, as your memories cloud my mind
From far away I?m callin?, as your memories cloud my mind
And I see better from a distance
And I see myself in a stranger?s eyes as he passes me by
