So Far Away Lyrics
What am I suspended here?
Should I kid myself that I have no fear?
I get no choice, I just have to wait
It may already be too late
I don't know what's going on
She is here, but I am gone, I am gone
My love is lying here
She's far away though she looks so near
`Time will tell,'' she says to me
When a warm home is all I need
Her peace of mind, her strength of will
It will come, she's sure it will
But how can I put my mind at rest?
I feel I'm coming off second best
And I'm cut with my own knife
Is this a dream or is it real life?
Oh, sleep, come on me soon
I can't bear this lonely room
Look at that hair lying there
The room is dark, she shows no fear
I'm lying still, my eyes are wide
My heart is pumping, I'm still alive
I'm still awake against my will
What will it ever take to still this burning in me?
Should I kid myself that I have no fear?
I get no choice, I just have to wait
It may already be too late
She is here, but I am gone, I am gone
She's far away though she looks so near
`Time will tell,'' she says to me
When a warm home is all I need
It will come, she's sure it will
But how can I put my mind at rest?
I feel I'm coming off second best
Is this a dream or is it real life?
Oh, sleep, come on me soon
I can't bear this lonely room
The room is dark, she shows no fear
I'm lying still, my eyes are wide
My heart is pumping, I'm still alive
What will it ever take to still this burning in me?

Shouldn't it go "and I'm cut with my own knife"? I think this song is about the lost love, when the relationship between the two still exists but the love is gone and neither one has enough resolve to part with the other.
Yeah the lyrics are, "and I'm cut with my own knife." I think that that line means he's suffering because of his own foolish actions and thats why things aren't working with his love. The song talks how there can be a very distant relationship where you and someone are dating or married, but there just isn't any love anymore.

Definitely, "And I'm cut with my own knife."
Amazing song.
