sandra boynton - faraway cookies lyrics

rate me

When the sunlight has gone and the green hills turn gray

And the day turns to evening somehow

Then i'm thinking of you though your so far away

And I'm wanting you close to me now

Oh chocolate chip cookies so high on the shelf

Hiding inside of the jar

I'm not tall enough to reach you myself

so near and yet so very far

I can never forget you your all I adore

though many long moments I've tried

I call out your name but

I'll have to do more

To bring you back here to my side

Oh chocolate chip cookies so high on the shelf

hiding inside of the jar

I'm not tall enough to reach you myself

So near and yet so very far

If I had three wishes theyed all be for you

if I had my way you'd be mine

Oh the reach wouldn't matter

if I had a latter

If I weren't so short we'd be fine

We,we would be back together someday

I cannot be happy till then

I have loved you before

I could love you some more

and I want to be with you again

when the sunlight has gone

and the green hills turn gray

old chocolate chip cookies so high on the shelf

Hiding inside of the jar

Im not tall enough to reach you myself

so near and yet so very far

and I wish I could be where you are
