’I dream that I see you larger than life

You carry a candle you’re twisting the knife

But you’re fading in the morning light

You’re so far away you’re so far away

And I like it that way’

This song is about making peace with the past and (once and for all) letting go of an attachment.

These days, I’m fixing my gaze on the river

I’m changing my ways I’m going with her

Wheeling and dealing all of my life, I see black but I swear I see white

And the green fields on the other side

They’re so far away, so far away. They’re so far away

And I like it that way

These days, I’m fixing my gaze on the river

I’m changing my ways I’m going with her

Pushing and pulling in the back of my mind

I look for something I’m hoping to find

Some meaning and I reach for the sky

It’s so far away, so far away. It’s so far away

And the more I know, the more I know I don’t know

The more I know, the more I know I don’t know. I don’t know

These days, I’m fixing my gaze on the river

I’m changing my ways I’m going with her

I dream that I see you larger than life

You carry a candle you’re twisting the knife

But you’re fading in the morning light

You’re so far away, so far away. You’re so far away

And I like it that way.

These days, I’m fixing my gaze on the river

I’m changing my ways I’m going with her

These Days
