Faraway Cookies

When the sunlight has gone and the green hills turn grey
And the day turns to evening somehow
Then I'm thinking of you, though you're 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
You're all I adore
Through 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, they'd all be for you
If I had my way you'd be mine
Oh, the reach wouldn't matter
If I had a ladder
If I weren't so short, we'd be fine

I believe we will be back together some day
I cannot be happy till then
I have loved you before
I could love you some more
And I long to be with you again
When the sunlight has gone and the green hills turn grey

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

And I wish I could be where you are
