about

Our hero starts his journey. Or is he in the middle? Point is, he's on a plane, going away.

lyrics

Flying over the Grand Canyon
Or some other big riverbed
Listening to the Captain talking
About some turbulence ahead
Hours in the air
Hours more in store
Layover in Nevada
Then it's back up into the air

Gone so far away
I don't know where to go
Gone so far away
And being so far away's too close to home

I went all around the world to find you
Now I'm a world away
Every place reminds me
How you said I couldn't stay
Had to leave your house
Had to leave this town
I don't want to be anywhere
If you don't want me around

Gone so far away
I don't know where to go
Gone so far away
And being so far away's too close to home

Don't ask me where I'm going
Don't ask me where I live
Don't ask me where I'm staying
Or who I'm staying with
Don't ask me where I'm going
Don't ask me where I've been
I'm just going
I'm just going

Gone so far away
I don't know where to go
Gone so far away
And being so far away's too close to home
