And God is so far away,
     And my heart belongs to no one,
     So now sometimes I pray
     Please take the space between us
     And fill it up some way.
     Take the space between us
     And fill it up some way.

     Oh my God you take the biscuit
     Treating me this way
     Expecting me to treat you well
     No matter what you say.
     How can I turn the other cheek
     It's black and bruised and torn
     I've been waiting
     Since the day that I was born.


     Take the space between us
     And fill it up some way.
     Take the space between us
     And fill it up some way.

     The fat man in his garden
     The thin man at his gate
     My God you must be sleeping
     Wake up, it's much too late.

     Take the space between us
     And fill it up some way.
     Take the space between us
     And fill it up some way.

     Do I have to tell the story
     Of a thousand rainy days?
     Since we first met,
     It's a big enough umbrella
     But it's always me that ends up getting wet
