How Far lyrics

There's a boat, I could sail away,

There's the sky, I could catch a plane,

There's a train, there's the tracks,

I could leave and I could choose to not come back,

Oh, never come back.

There you are, giving up the fight.

Here I am, begging you to try,

Talk to me, let me in.

But you just put your wall back up again,

Oh, when's it gonna end.

How far do I have to go to make you understand,

I wanna make this work so much it hurts, but I just can't.

Keep on giving, go on living with the way things are.

So I'm gonna walk away

And it's up to you to say how far.

There's a chance I could change my mind

But I won't, not till you decide

What you want, what you need.

Do you even care if I stay or leave,

Oh, what's it gonna be.

How far do I have to go to make you understand,

I wanna make this work so much it hurts, but I just can't.

Keep on giving, go on living with the way things are.

So I'm gonna walk away

And it's up to you to say how far.

Out of this chair or just across the room,

Halfway down the block or halfway to the moon.

How far do I have to go to make you understand,

I wanna make this work so much it hurts, but I just can't.

Keep on giving, go on living with the way things are.

So I'm gonna walk away

And it's up to you to say,

Yeah, I'm gonna walk away

And it's up to you to say how far.
