Cover art for Far Away lyrics by Nickelback

This song to me is: My boyfriend and I planned to get married, he is in the navy, and I'm still going to school and working though I'm going to the navy. After three months we broke up because he couldn't handle the distance. He loves me and misses me but he feels he's tying me down and he doesn't wanna hold me back. It's so hard to take in and believe. Far away for far too long. He wanted to let me down as lightly as he could. I fucked that up when I questioned everything because my disbelief.
