In another world there would be no oceans and no rivers
In another time there would be more hours just for lovers
But after the day, the day is done, I want to be near you
But you're miles away, where night is day, in my heart I'm with you
Chorus (Gordon)
But right now, I am here and you are there
It's not like climbing up a stair
And though it hurts 'cause we still care
The gotta go is so unfair
On another plane, it's so insane, 'cause I know the goodbyes hurt you
I could stay right here, always be near, but some things I know I must do
Another postcard and souvenirs for your collections
Another six months gone, more loneliness between connections
And right now, I am here and you are there
It's not like climbing up a stair
And though it hurts 'cause we still care
The gotta go is so unfair
I hope we can work it out
I don't wanna grow apart
But it makes me sceam and shout
When I can't hold you in the dark
Oh no, oh no, oh no, gotta go
Right now, I am here and you are there
It's not like climbing up a stair
And though it hurts 'cause we still care
The gotta go is so unfair
