So Far Away Lyrics

Why are you, so far away
You're all the way across, the US of A
I think about you, almost all day long
That's why, I wrote this song
You moved all the way, to California
And I wanted to tell you something, if I may
While we were online, just the other day
But I'm not sure, what I should say
Your name is Gladys
And with you I can't miss
Cause I like Swiss Miss
And we both love Christmas
I hope I get a chance, to see you next year
But if I don't come west, please have no fear
Your words will always have, a place within my mind
Your memory will be, with me for all time
You moved all the way, to California
And I wanted to tell you something, if I may
While we were online, just the other day
But I'm not sure, what I should say
Your name is Gladys
And with you I can't miss
Cause I like Swiss Miss
And we both love Christmas

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
