James Taylor - Song for You Far Away

For MeiMei
A video about missing a friend...

This is a Song for You - By James Taylor
Lyrics
People around
Me are at it again
God only knows how they do it
One to another then back again
Something keeps putting them through it
Me Ive been watching more than fifteen years
And it hasnt changed a bit
People keep talking bout a different line
But it never seems to fit

This is a song for you
Far away far away
This is a song for you
Far away from me
This is a song for you
Far away far away
This is a song for you
Far away from me

Sitting here all alone
Is bringing it on again Im gone again
Sitting here thinking of you
Is driving it home again
This is a song for you far away so far away
This is a song for you far away from me
Open the door it takes me back
Oh it takes me back
Mention your name and Im gone again
Oh Im gone again
This is a song for you far away from me
Far away from me

James Vernon Taylor (born March 12, 1948) is an American singer-songwriter and guitarist, born in Belmont, Massachusetts.

Taylor's career began in the mid-1960s, but he found his audience in the early 1970s, singing sensitive and gentle acoustic songs. He was part of a wave of singer-songwriters of the time that also included Joni Mitchell, Tom Rush, Cat Stevens, Carole King, John Denver, Jim Croce, Don McLean, Jackson Browne as well as Carly Simon, whom Taylor later married.

His 1976 album Greatest Hits was certified diamond and has sold more than 11 million copies. He has retained a large audience well into the 1990s and early 2000s, when some of his best-selling and most-awarded albums were released.

I never realised how beautiful this song is.

I was looking for this song so I could lean to play it on guitar. I've watched the video over and over. As I watched the video I was reading the comments. When I read the one comment someone wrote I began to cry. I am so sorry for your loss. I understand this. Life is so fragile. The comment the poster wrote was "Has this lady been found". May you keep her memory green and may the light of truth overcome your darkness. Peace & Love ~ John

i might be far away but never from U!

[utubuser10]

hearing this when in first came out (think it was 1984) and the line, "me i've been watching more than fifteen years, hasn't changed a bit," and thinking how long ago that seemed back then...now that fifteen has turned to forty.
