I don`t know where to start; there`s just so much to say
And no - one`s home so I can indulge again.
I don`t know where to stop; I never really tried.
Discarding these clothes of weathered pride.
You call me delicate - I`ll break my own bones.
Don`t talk to me about being alone (when I`m)
Half the world away. Waiting for your call.
Picking up the phone - there`s no - one there at all.
`cause you`re half the world away. And further every day
I`m just a dumb delay when I`m half the world away.
I pin your picture up. I see you on the screen.
I cast myself with you in every dream.
A promise is too much - they`re all but pretty lies -
So worthless when my mind`s eye is going blind
As I sing this song I wonder if you`ll hear : but you`d never go se near (when I`m)
And though we`re poles apart I won`t give up just get.
You`ll never hide so don`t forget (that I`m)
