lyrics

It's too bad you're miles away,
I could take you,
and hear you say.
That you like to talk to me,
about the things,
you'd like to be.

And I feel,
I'm getting older,
and I will,
I will never meet you.

I'm getting restless and weary,
I'm getting sick of the state my minds in.
I need to go to a country,
I've only heard of in books and movies.

And I feel,
You know what I'm saying.
You know how I feel.
But I'm broke so i'm staying.

Why does it seem all the best ones,
all are in love or are too far from me.
Maybe there isn't a reason,
maybe i'll find you alone.

And I feel,
I'm getting older,
and I will,
I will never meet you.

I want to put you on canvass,
I want to see you in lines and colors.
Oil and dust making deep blue,
but I know what I might not ever see you.

And I feel,
That we've met each-other,
Many times,
Many times before.

I want to live in the mountains,
I want to live in the trees and meadows,
I want to take you with me,
I want to know what I'm really seeing.

And I feel,
My body's an engine,
and it's breaking down,
without you around.
