Farther Stars - John Hiatt

Friends of mine they don’t hear

Clocks ticking all around their ears

They don’t expect a thing

Bridges moving while the river sings

Long lost love

Where do we go from here

Farther stars

Different atmospheres

The river sings us back from the time

Drawn to heaven with a voice so fine

Final joys final cries

On and off like starlight in her eyes

Long lost love

Where do we go from here

Farther stars

Different atmospheres

You know your poetry kept me up all night

Like you I didn’t have the heart to die

Still so many things left to say

Long lost love

Where do we go from here

Death’s the truth and death’s a lie

Love is your only alibis

Mary you’ll forget this soon

Where we were and when we sang this tune

Long lost love

Where do we go from here

Farther stars

Different atmospheres

Long lost love
