Claude François - So Near And Yet So Far lyrics

(Salvatore Cutugno/Vito Pallaviccini)

So near and yet so far, I'm here but there you are

love can be such a long lonely road

when you are leaving the one you love .

So near and yet so far, I'm here but there you are

I cry but you just laugh at my pain

I'll never see you again .

The car that gave us happiness is driving me to loneliness

I had to leave you ,

when I go by familiar scenes that once were part of all my dreams

when I believed you ,

why do I keep thinking of you ? wish to god I didn't love you .

So near and yet so far, I'm here but there you are

love can be such a long lonely road

when you are leaving the one you love .

So near and yet so far, I'm here but there you are

I cry but you just laugh at my pain

I'll never see you again .

The radio goes on and on, why does it play your favourite song ?

I've learned to hate it,

as I pass by I catch the eye of lovers who don't know that love

is overrated ,

love is something that can hurt you, only memories don't desert you.

So near and yet so far, I'm here but there you are

love can be such a long lonely road

when you are leaving the one you love.
