He walked the streets so far away
In lands unknown
In skies of gray
He searched for love in foreign days
But found a truth in disarray
They gave him smiles
They gave him time
They whispered dreams
They sold a crime
But in their hearts
The love was blind
A hollow touch
A fleeting sign
Faraway lover
Where are you now
I'm lost and lonely
Show me how
To find a heart
In lands so wide
Faraway lover
Be my guide
He climbed mountains
He crossed the seas
A thousand faces
A million pleas
But every girl would never please
To give him love
It felt like tease
They had the charm
They had the grace
A perfect world
A perfect place
Yet deep inside
An empty space
He craved for love
A warm embrace
Faraway lover
Where are you now
I'm lost and lonely
Show me how
To find a heart
In lands so wide
Faraway lover
Be my guide
