You're half a world away

Standing next to me

It seems that every day

I'm loosing you almost invisibly

Though you are near

I can't reach that far

Across to where you are

And so you stay

Just half a world away

And I would cross

The universe for you

What good would it do

If you weren't even there?

Till you return

And until your way is clear

I will be here

Not half a world away

You're half a world away

And no one is to blame

If love outlives its day

And turns into an ember from a flame

I love you as before

Till words will be nomore

Till I can't find a way

To where you stay

Just half a world away

And I would cross

The universe for you

What good would it do

If you weren't even there?

Till you return

And until your way is clear

I will be here

Not half a world away

You're half a world away
