I wonder if she
Will reach for me now
Alone in the night
Those arms held me close
Such a short time ago
Holding so tight
Oh, everyone knows
So far away, and feel how it grows
It's the way of the world, I suppose
I wonder if she
Is tasting the ground
Wine from the cup
Does it flow on her lips
And spread on her tongue
And take her back up?
Does she feel the wind
The embrace of its touch
Carressing her skin?
Does she rise to its kiss
As she once did to me
And fall back again?
Oh, everyone knows
So far away, and feel how it grows
It's the way of the world, I suppose
And though this journey takes me away
I feel her closer to me every day
Far away
I wonder if she
Is closing her eyes
And drifting to sleep
Does she see my face
The way I see hers
When she dreams deep?
Time has carried me far
Lifted me up
To this perilous height
In our wildest of dreams
Could we ever believe
What I see tonight?
Oh, everyone knows
So far away, feel how it grows
It's the way of the world, I suppose
Oh, everyone knows
So far away, we feel how it grows
It's the way of our world, I suppose
