Cyndi Lauper - The Faraway Nearby Lyrics

[Refrain]
Out in the faraway nearby
Can your hear my call?
Out in the faraway nearby
I'm breaking down the walls
'Till you're here to stay
Out from the faraway

[Verse 1]
Hot looks, cold words
Don't know what it is you heard
But I didn't mean it
If I said something wrong
Ooh, short nights, long dreams
Something happens in between
Then a weird feeling
Like you're here, but still you're gone
Ooh, heart beats like a knock on the door
But sounds so far away

[Refrain]
In the faraway nearby
Can your hear me call?
Out in the faraway nearby
I'm breaking down the walls
'Till you're here to stay
Out from the faraway
[Verse 2]
Big whisper, small scream
But it's not like what it seems
Locked up in the open
Don't know which way to go
Ooh, deserts, oceans
Leaving footprints in the sand
Hoping that you'll see them
And wishing you'd follow

[Bridge]
Walk with me hand in hand, ya-ha
And talk with me, you got a plan? Ah-ha
And hold me, and hold me
Don't stop

[Refrain]
Out in the faraway nearby
Can your hear me call?
Out in the faraway nearby
I'm breaking down the walls
'Till you're here to stay
Out from the faraway

[Outro]
Ooh, heart beats like a knock on the door, ya-ha
Back from the far away
In the faraway nearby
Can you hear me call?
Out in the faraway...
