So Far Away

Carole King & James Taylor

So far away

Doesn't anybody stay in one place anymore

It would be so fine to see your face at my door

Doesn't help to know you're just time away

Long ago I reached for you

And there you stood

Holding you again could only do me good

Oh how I wish I could

But you're so far away

One more song about moving along the highway

Can't say much of anything that's new

If I could only work this life out my way

I'd rather spend it being close to you

But you're so far away

Doesn't anybody stay in one place anymore

It would be so fine to see your face at my door

Doesn't help to know you're so far away

Yeah

You’re so far away

Traveling around sure gets me down and lonely

Nothing else to do but close my mind

I sure hope the road don't come to own me

There's so many dreams I've yet to find

But you're so far away

Doesn't anybody stay in one place anymore

It would be so fine to see your face at my door

It doesn't help to know you're so far away

Yeah

You’re so far away

Yeah

You’re so far away

Not every song that will be featured here will be what is generally considered as being “Christian” in the eyes of this world.  For some will be anguished cries from the pit of despair, and others will be quite obviously fervent rants of rebellion.  Nonetheless, be assured that they will all be of our Heavenly Father (in one way or another) and I hope that you have been given ears to hear the message.

Sweet Seasons

Carole King

Sometimes you win

Sometimes you lose

And sometimes the blues get a hold of you

Just when you thought

You had made it

All around the block

People will talk

But I want to give it all that I've got

I just don't want

I don't want to waste it

Talkin' 'bout

Sweet seasons

On my mind

Sure does appeal to me

You know we can get there easily

Just like a sailboat

A-sailin' on the sea

Sometimes you win

Sometimes you lose

And most times you choose between the two

Oh

Wonderin'

Wonderin'

If you have made it

But I'll have some kids

And make my plans

And I'll watch the seasons runnin' away

And I'll build me

A life in the open

A life in the country

I'm talkin' 'bout

A sweet season

On my mind

Sure does appeal to me

You know we can get there easily

Just like a sailboat

A-sailin' on the sea

Talkin' 'bout

A sweet season

Talkin' 'bout

A sweet

Sweet sweet season

Talkin' 'bout

A sweeeeeet season

Talkin' 'bout

A sweeeeeeet…

Nightingale

Carole King

Like some night bird

Homeward wingin'

He seeks

The sheltered nest

Like the sailor's

Lost horizon

He needs

Some place to rest

The songs that he's been singin'

No longer make much sense

And those strangers' cold perceptions

They've killed his confidence

Nightingale

She sails away upon a sea of song

Nightingale

She serenades his lonely lonely life along

When his tired voice is broken

His golden hope is gone

She makes a lost soul's simple longin’

Somehow not so wrong

Nightingale

Nightingale

He was strong

But he was taken

By the thought

Of his success

Those spotlight shadows

How they lured him

And took him

Like all the rest

But that old dream don't look good now

No it don't seem quite the same

He needs to hear a tender word

Won't you sing him home again

Nightingale

She sails away upon a sea of song

Nightingale

She serenades his lonely lonely life along

When his strength is slowly goin'

His pride is all but gone

She makes a foolish dreamer listen

To one last song

Nightingale

Nightingale

Nightingale

Nightingale

Nightingale

Nightingale
