You're half a world away Standing next to me It seems that every day I'm losing 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 untill 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 it's day And turns into an ember from a flame I love you as before Till words will be no more Till I can't find a way To where you stay Just half a world away
