A Far Cry

Malcolm Holcombe

[Verse 1]
I've heard misfortune's losses
And wasted ways before me by the costs
Of giving someone time enough for spending
Love only borrowed

[Verse 2]
I've placed myself at ease
Listening to the lies of self belief
For wanting something close enough for keeping
A far cry from here

[Chorus]
But I believe in ways than these
To speak another dear who has been spared
Innocence so near
A far cry from here

[Verse 3]
Even still the night is passing
Behind a heart an emptiness still follows
The distance damns the swallow hard for landing
Love only borrowed

[Verse 4]
And some are sad but true to know
There's belonging in just longing for someone
My shoulder rests a road I only follow
Love only borrowed

[Chorus]
Oh but I believe in ways than these
To speak another dear who has been spared
Innocence so near
A far cry from here
Oh but I believe in ways than these
To speak another dear who has been spared
Innocence so near
A far cry from here
