How Far Lyrics - Beth Orton

I heard you say and rightly so 

"We turn our backs on we most need to know" 

Give in too fast then give in to no one 

And once they've got you where they want you 

They don't wanna know... 

I could leave or I could stay 

It doesn't make a bit of difference anymore, anyway 

With each and every circumstance 

I lose knowledge and an innocence 

Won't find me grieving 

There's no regretting leaving 

When I have to come here 

Like I know I have to come here 

I can see I have to come here 

For my view to be clear 

For my view to be clear 

It's easy to forget how far we've come 

How near I feel to where we first begun 

Pushed it too far 

I won't pull it too slow 

Cause where the story ends depends on how far we go 

I could leave or I could stay 

It doesn't make a bit of difference anymore, anyway 

With each and every circumstance 

I lose knowledge and an innocence 

Won't find me grieving 

There's no regretting leaving 

When I had to come here 

Like I know I had to come here 

Oh I know I had to come here 

For my view to be clear 

And now I see I had to be here 

Oh I know I had to be here 

I can see I had to be here 

For my view is now clear 

So roll on blue skies 

Roll on gray, just roll away 

Come on blue skies, come on gray 

Just roll away..
