Every time that we say goodbye
It breaks my heart
Cos I know that we have to be
So far apart
I would travel all the way to you
If only just to see you smile
Even if the only way I could
Was to walk 400 miles
PRE-CHORUS:
Wish that we could be closer
Close enough to see
I want to know I can hold you
I want you next to me
CHORUS:
I’ve got nothing but emptiness inside when you’re a long, long way from me
I only wish I could change the fact that you are such a long, long way from me
I’m just living for the next time
We meet again
My emotions just eat me up
Until then
Then when we are together at last
It’s like you’ve never been away
And we make love and hold each other close
I want you every single day
(PRE-CHORUS + CHORUS)
You’re such a long, long way
Such a long, long way
(REPEAT VERSE 1, LINES 1-4 + VERSE 2 LINES 5-8)
Wish that we could be closer
Close enough to see
I want to know I can hold you
I want you here with me
(CHORUS)
You’re such a long, long way
Ooh, such a long, long way
(CHORUS TO FADE)
