I can see you down the river Standing on the shoreline dipping your toes. And I know that you love this place... But you know that you won't stay... Got a ticket for a plane ride in the morn'. You won't call me anymore, But I could never blame you For living your life on the other side of the world. And I tried to save Your bracelet with the white pearls As if I could save you too. When our shadows converge and our opinions conflict I choke on my words... I hesitate. But when my ego gets curbed, it's been you at the reins, Wearing boots and a sundress While you're guiding me back to earth again... But then, you won't call me anymore, But I could never blame you For living your life on the other side of the world. And I tried to save Your bracelet with the white pearls As if I could save you too. So let some light in the room. Lay by my side. Let me soak in your presence as you soak in mine. 'Cause you'll be gone again... ten thousand miles... Ten thousand miles.
