That Far Away Look

A girl I knew always seemed to be daydreaming.

Some people say that you are a thinker
Some people say that you are in a world all your own
If the question was proposed to me, well, I don't know what I'd say
But I know I love that far away look in your eyes

I've heard from those same people that your honesty is pure
Never a motive derived of greed and even less of malice I'm sure
That's hard to find in our world of sins and lies so the pleasure is all mine
Must be the girl with the far away look in her eyes

Sometimes it seems that you are disconnected
Sometimes even slightly out of reach
But, if in your haze you are protected I can't condemn your choices
Cause I just love that far away look in your eyes

You are something of a mystery
Sitting here in front of me I try to keep pace
Your thoughts can be random and untethered, adrift in space
I wouldn't attempt to blind that far away look in your eyes

So go on in your reverie
Traverse that world out of time and space
When I see you look through me it comes as no surprise
And I don't mind that far away look in your eyes
