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)
