So far away from me
Is the family of my heart;
So far away from me
Is the father I need,
The mother I love,
The sisters and brother
I hold so dear.
Messages and phone calls
Are a link across the miles,
But the ruin of my trust
Hinders healing to my
Battle-scarred heart.
I love them so much,
Despite the distance of ground
Between us;
I miss them more than
Anything.
So far away from me
Is the family of my heart.
