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)
