Far away, yet so near
But we're connected anyway
I still feel you standing in your empty room
When all is quiet, the silence hurts
Although I can't be by your side
I'm watching over you
Weapons are laid down
Smoking guns may rest a while
On the battlefield, no troops are moving
The hungry guests look sad
Sitting in your restaurant
Longing for their happy meal
That won't be served today
Pause the game!
Stop the play!
The pirates strike the sails
Treasure island has to wait
The wind is gone, the waves are hiding
And the meerkats solved the case
There's a still life on my tv screen
Their smiling faces turned to stone
Like statues in the rain
Pause the game!
Stop the play!
Far away, yet so near
But we're connected anyway
I still feel you standing in your empty room
When all is quiet, the silence hurts
Although I can't be by your side
I'm watching over you, watching over you
T-Rex lost his tail
The missing piece, untraceable,
'Cause the rocket came from out of nowhere
And the dwarfs upon the hill
Are wondering where the orcs have gone
Why marbles lost their gravity
And the spaceship never lands
Pause the game!
Stop the play!
Far away, yet so near
But we're connected anyway
I still feel you standing in your empty room
When all is quiet, the silence hurts
Although I can't be by your side
I'm watching over you, watching over you
Far away, yet so near
But we're connected anyway
I still feel you standing in your empty room
When all is quiet, the silence hurts
Although I can't be by your side
I'm watching over you, watching over you
