So Far Away Lyrics


We say welcome to the mission
Show us all what you can do
We need a man with vision
So we put our trust in you
And now we hope sincerely
That you'll do the best that you can doOh, for sure it won't be easy
And we'll have to risk our lives
Some will try to break us
And cut us down to size
But just remember there can be no consolation prize
Not in our eyesIt's a long way to go
We can't wait one more day
We need someone to light up the wayWe may run out of time
Can you hear what we say?
Because heaven is so far awayAlthough time is getting short
There's still some sand left in the glass
And now we have a living breathing
Rocket man at last

It's time to take a step
And nail our colors to the mastNo more talk of great adventures
When it's movement that we need
It must be our intention
That we never lose the lead
So count us down to zero and let's get up to speed
We're up and awayIt's a long way to go
We can't wait one more day
We need someone to light up the wayWe may run out of time
So believe what we say?
Because heaven is so far awayAnd so now they cry for justice
As if justice will be done
But the eye up in the sky
Was flying too close to the sun
The Challenger has fallen
And the race has now been run

The Alan Parsons Project was a British rock group active from 1975 until 1990, founded by Alan Parsons and Eric Woolfson both from London, England. The group is based on a number of regular group members such as Stuart Elliot and Ian Bairnson, complemented with varying lead vocals such as Colin Blunstone (the Zombies), Chris Rainbow and Gary Brooker (Procol Harum). The group is well known for its concept albums, which cover themes such as Edgar Allan Poe, Gaudi, and Freud.

Eric Woolfson wrote most of the music and lyrics while Alan Parsons overviewed the production process. Prior to starting his Project, Parsons worked as an engineer with names such as The Beatles(Abbey Road, the Get Back roofttop concert) and Pink Floyd (Dark Side of the Moon, Atom Heart Mother).

Since the 1990s Alan Parsons has been performing live shows, touring all over the world, but without Eric Woolfson.
