Away From You

The O. C. Supertones

Compositor: The O.C. Supertones

Say you got a minute friend
Because I'd like to tell you something
You may think nothing of it
But wait you're gonna love it
What if I told you
I held the one true philosophy
Would you hear me out
Or just turn your back
And laugh at me?

Lord I just don't understand
This strange creature you call man
Who thinks he lives by his own hand
But I know, I know, I know, I know

There's no life away from you
There's no life away from you

(No life away from you)

So I will remain still and silent
For fear of the words I may say
But am I still in my defiance
When I'm trying so hard to obey

Say you got a minute friend
Because I'd like to tell you something
You may think nothing of it
But wait you're gonna love it
What if I told you
I held the one true philosophy
Would you hear me out
Or just turn your back and laugh at me?

Lord I just don't understand
This strange creature you call man
Who thinks he lives by his own hand
But I know, I know, I know, I know

There's no life away from you
There's no life away from you

So I will remain still and silent
For fear of the words I may say
But am I still in my defiance
When I'm trying so hard to obey

There's no life away from you
There's no life away from you

There's no joy away from you
There's no peace away from you

There's no life away from you
There's no life away from you
