"World Away" lyrics

We never know exactly where we are
And we've been living like a false start
Living like a false start
And any time we seem to gather speed
You're always traveling away from me
Traveling away from me
Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Always seems to be (always seems to be)
The hours that I keep (the hours that I keep)
I find you fast asleep (I find you fast asleep)

I am fighting hard to stay awake
Before too long but not today
I feel so close although we are
A world away, a world away
We're still learning, darling, who we are
So close and yet so far
Although my lonely idle heart's
A world away, a world away

And any time we get a second take
I'm still thinking of the words to say
Thinking of the words to say
Right or wrong I'd make the same mistakes
Still want to kiss you in the pouring rain
Kiss you in the pouring rain
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Hanging over me (hanging over me)
Overseas (overseas)

I am fighting hard to stay awake
Before too long but not today
I feel so close although we are
A world away, a world away
We're still learning, darling, who we are
So close and yet so far
Although my lonely idle heart's
A world away, a world away

There's no reason why
In this heart of mine
You can't always stay
Every day
To the grave

I am fighting hard to stay awake
Before too long but not today
I feel so close although we are
A world away, a world away
We're still learning, darling, who we are
So close and yet so far
Although my lonely idle heart's
A world away, a world away

(A world away, a world away)
A world away, a world away
(A world away, a world away)
A world away, a world away
