lyrics

Far Away Across the Sea

You and me crossed an ocean
All the way to a city of light
But in this world of trouble
Sometimes heaven just doesn’t seem right

When I go out in this city
So many faces are so long
And then I get discouraged
Thinking everything has gone wrong

Oh but you, oh but you, but you
You are here
When your job dosn't take you elsewhere
And it's you for me
Far away across the sea
You are here
When your job doesn't take you elsewhere
And it’s you for me, far away, all the way
Across the sea

I go out to that fancy big street
Looking at the new fashion trends
That just makes me homesick
Missing all my back home friends

So I climb up to the high cathedral
And pray underneath the dome
But then I say goodbye Jesus
Because I know soon you’d be getting home

Because you, because you, because you
You are here
When your job doesn’t take you elsewhere
It's you and me, far away across the sea
You are here
When your job doesn't take you elsewhere
And it’s you and me, far away, all the way
Across the sea
