So Far Away – Walber Costa Letra
Daddy, can you hear me now?
Or did the silence steal your voice somehow?
This house still keeps your footsteps in the dark
But your eyes never find where we are
I tried to understand your fears
All the wounds you never let appear
But every night there's still a space
That time itself could not erase
And I know
You got lost there too
But I'm still standing here
Waiting for a sign from you
'Cause you're so far away
Even when I say your name
You tell me it'll be alright
But the silence answers every time
You're so far away
Like a dream that disappeared
And I'm still here waiting
For a piece of you somewhere
Daddy, today I thought of you
And I watched the doorway like I always do
I just wanted to hear you say
That you missed me anyway
There's a mirror inside my room
Showing me the parts of you
The same tired eyes I see
The same silence left in me
And I know
Maybe pain consumed your soul
But I still keep a space
For the love I'll never know
'Cause you're so far away
Even when I say your name
You tell me it'll be alright
But the silence answers every time
You're so far away
Like a sky without the dawn
And I'm still here waiting
For the day you come back home
Ooh, ooh
Can you hear me now?
Ooh, ooh
There's still time to turn around
Don't disappear again
Don't leave me here alone
Stay for just a moment
Just one day before you go
Daddy, if you hear this now
There's still a light somehow
And after all this time
I still wish you were around
