the world is between us
Arny Margret
The world is between us
you’re hours away
when you’re asleep I’m awake
and I don’t stay up late
Oh I sent you a letter
I hope it arrives
before the summer comes
and the longsome nights
I hate to be here
so far away
can’t wait to see you
don’t be late
But I wanna see the sun
the way you see it
I wanna sing the songs
late in the evenings
The world is between us
you’re hours away
I don’t know what to say
I’ll be here in the shade
I found a new place
to rest my eyes
with the sea on each side
to watch me cry
I hate to be here
so far away
can’t wait to see you
don’t be late
But I wanna see the sun
the way you see it
I wanna sing the songs
late in the evenings
and live with the feeling
