Nothing's So Far Away (As Yesterday) Lyrics

Another evening, the rain falling down
It's been a long time, since you've come around
A little laughter, and we had it all
It's so misleading, the things you recall

Turning the pages
We open the cages
Now I know that
Nothing's so far away as yesterday, wo, oh
Nothing's so far away

Take a look at the person inside
You realize there is nothing to hide
I remember the things that we said
So very simple the lives that we led

Turning the pages
We open the cages
Now I know that
Nothing's so far away as yesterday, wo, oh
Nothing's so far away

I recall how it used to be
And I can feel it, feel it surrounding me

Turning the pages
We open the cages
Now I know that
Nothing's so far away as yesterday, wo, oh
Nothing's so far away

I recall how it used to be
And I can feel it, feel it surrounding me

Oh, nothing's so far away as yesterday, wo, oh
Nothing's so far away as yesterday, wo, oh
Nothing's so far away as yesterday, wo, oh
Nothing's so far away as yesterday, wo, oh

Another evening, the rain falling down 
It's been a long time, since you've come around 
A little laughter, and we had it all 
It's so misleading, the things you recall

Turning the pages 
We open the cages 
Now I know that 
Nothing's so far away as yesterday, wo, oh 
Nothing's so far away

Take a look at the person inside 
You realize there is nothing to hide 
I remember the things that we said 
So very simple the lives that we led

Turning the pages 
We open the cages 
Now I know that 
Nothing's so far away as yesterday, wo, oh 
Nothing's so far away

I recall how it used to be 
And I can feel it, feel it surrounding me

Turning the pages 
We open the cages 
Now I know that 
Nothing's so far away as yesterday, wo, oh 
Nothing's so far away

I recall how it used to be 
And I can feel it, feel it surrounding me

Oh, nothing's so far away as yesterday, wo, oh 
Nothing's so far away as yesterday, wo, oh 
Nothing's so far away as yesterday, wo, oh 
Nothing's so far away as yesterday, wo, oh

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.
