Jackson Browne
Farther On

In my earlier years I hid my tears and passed my days alone
Adrift on an ocean of loneliness
My dreams like nets were thrown
To catch the love that I'd heard of
In books and films and songs
Now there's a world of illusion and fantasy
In the place where the real world belongs
Well I look for the beauty in songs
Fill my head and lead me on
Though my dreams have come up torn and empty
As many times as love has come and gone

To those gentle ones my memory runs
To the laughter we shared at the meals
I've filled their kitchens and living rooms
With my schemes and my broken wheels
It was never clear how far or near
The gates to my citadel lay
They were cutting from stone some dreams of their own
But they listened to mine anyway

And I'm not sure what I'm trying to say
It could be I've lost my way
Though I keep a watch over the distance
Heaven's no closer than it was yesterday
And the angels are older
They know not to wait up for the sun
They look over my shoulder
At the maps and the drawings of the journey I've begun

Now the distance leads me farther on
Though the reaons I once had are gone
I keep thinking I'll find what I'm looking for
In the sand beneath the dawn
But the angels are older
They can see that the sun's setting fast
They look over my shoulder
At the vision of paradise contained in the light of the past
And they lay down beside me
To sleep beside the road 'til the morning has come
When they know they will find me
With my maps and my faith in the distance
Moving farther on


Mirror lyrics:

Moving farther on
With my maps and my faith in the distance
When they know they will find me
To sleep beside the road 'til the morning has come
And they lay down beside me
At the vision of paradise contained in the light of the past
They look over my shoulder
They can see that the sun's setting fast
But the angels are older
In the sand beneath the dawn
I keep thinking I'll find what I'm looking for
Though the reaons I once had are gone
Now the distance leads me farther on

At the maps and the drawings of the journey I've begun
They look over my shoulder
They know not to wait up for the sun
And the angels are older
Heaven's no closer than it was yesterday
Though I keep a watch over the distance
It could be I've lost my way
And I'm not sure what I'm trying to say

But they listened to mine anyway
They were cutting from stone some dreams of their own
The gates to my citadel lay
It was never clear how far or near
With my schemes and my broken wheels
I've filled their kitchens and living rooms
To the laughter we shared at the meals
To those gentle ones my memory runs

As many times as love has come and gone
Though my dreams have come up torn and empty
Fill my head and lead me on
Well I look for the beauty in songs
In the place where the real world belongs
Now there's a world of illusion and fantasy
In books and films and songs
To catch the love that I'd heard of
My dreams like nets were thrown
Adrift on an ocean of loneliness
In my earlier years I hid my tears and passed my days alone
