Lyrics of Far Far Away by Slade

verse

I've seen the yellow lights go down the Mississippi
I've seen the bridges of the world, and they are for real
I've had a red light off the wrist, without me even getting kissed
It still seems so unreal

verse

I've seen the morning in the mountains of Alaska
I've seen the sunset in the east and in the west
I've sung the glory that was Rome and passed the hound dog singer's home
It still seems for the best

chorus

And I'm far, far away with my head up in the clouds
And I'm far, far away with my feet down in the crowds
Letting loose around the world, but the call of home is loud
Still as loud

verse

I've seen the Paris lights from high upon Montmartre
And felt the silence hanging low in no man's land
And though those Spanish nights were fine, it wasn't only from the wine
It still seems all in hand

chorus

And I'm far, far away with my head up in the clouds
And I'm far, far away with my feet down in the crowds
Letting loose around the world, but the call of home is loud
Still as loud

hook

Ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah

verse

I've seen the yellow lights go down the Mississippi
The Grand Bahama Island stories carry on
And though those arigato smiles stay in your memory for a while
There still seems more to come

chorus

And I'm far, far away with my head up in the clouds
And I'm far, far away with my feet down in the crowds
Letting loose around the world (far, far away)
But the call of home is loud
Still as loud

chorus

And I'm far, far away with my head up in the clouds
And I'm far, far away with my feet down in the crowds
And l'm far, far away, but the sound of home is loud
Still as loud
Writer(s): Neville Holder, James Lea
