Chris Velan Far From Here lyrics

I'm suddenly aware
Of the lateness of everything around me
The chairs are on the table
The lights are up, they're asking us to leave
You should know I care
I really care ‘bout you came and found me
It gives me reason to believe
But the miles have been collecting
Since I left my Sara in the springtime
I hardly can remember
The rooms I've played, the places I have been
Like beads upon a necklace
The days string on together ‘till you can't find
Where they end and they begin//

So I'm thankful for all of your kindness
It feels good to have you near
As I'm washed upon your shores
Tonight I will be yours
But tomorrow, I'll be far from here//

I've been taken like a sucker
I've got coked-up truckers trying to drive right through me
Cheap motels and rest stops
Waking up in the shape of my dreams
I float through dying cities
A lonely ghost who wishes someone knew me
Barely holding at the seams//

So I'm thankful for all of your kindness
It feels good to have you near
As I'm washed upon your shores

Tonight I will be yours
But tomorrow, I'll be far from here//

Depending how you're leaning
Anything can lose its meaning If you let it
Got some dollars in my pocket
Got eyes lit up like rockets in the night
It's crazy but I'm thinking
If I keep moving/Just a little faster
I may catch up to the light
I may catch up to the light//

While searching for the chorus
I almost crashed the van in Amarillo
Been caught between the verses
Gone days without uttering a word
And your offer of a bed
A place to lay my head upon a pillow
Is the best thing that I've heard
The best thing that I've heard//

And I'm thankful for all of your kindness
It feels good to have you near
As I'm washed upon your shores
Tonight I will be yours
But tomorrow, I'll be far from here
As I'm washed upon your shores
Tonight I will be yours
But tomorrow, I'll be far from here//
