Lyrics

Far away in a distant city, he wonders.
Home alone on a starry evening, she sits and waits.
Staring out into nowhere, he ponders.
Looking out of her open window, she sees his face.

It makes no sense, it defies intent!
It’s not fair to anyone, anyone at all.

Time passes him by, he sits and waits.
Crying into a pillow, she can’t understand.
Screwing up his courage, he calls her.
The phone rings in her empty flat, no answer.

It makes no sense, it defies intent!
It’s not fair to anyone.
And they’re both thinking:

I want to be here right now
Looking into your eyes
I want be here right now
Flying in circles.
I want to be here right now
There’s something I want to say.
I want to be here right now,
But not if you’re far away,
When you’re so far away.
