His voice seemed to come from a long way off.

His voice seemed to be coming to him from some other place.

His voice now seemed to come from a million miles away.

When he did, his voice seemed to get even more serious.

His voice seemed to come from across the room, perhaps near the door, though he had made not a sound as he'd moved.
