Fred Astaire

So Near and Yet So Far
I so often dreamWe might make a teamBut so wild a schemeI must banishFor each time I startTo open my heartYou vanishWe might find some isleWhere lotuses smileAnd our time beguileGoing nativeBut how can we goUnless you are co-OperativeMy dear, I've a feeling you areSo near and yet so farYou appear like a radiant starFirst so near, then again so farI just start getting you keenOn clinches galore with meWhen fate steps in on the sceneAnd mops up the floor with meNo wonder I'm a bit under parSongtexteFor you're so near and yet so farMy condition is only so-so'Cause whenever I feel you're close, ohYou turn out to be, oh, soFar Aus Songtexte Mania
