Half A Word Away

You're half a world away, standing next to me
It seems that every day, I'm losing you almost invisibly
Though you are near, I can't reach that far
Across to where you are and so you stay
Just half a world away

And I would cross the universe for you
What good would it do if you weren't even there?
Till you return and until your way is clear
I will be here, not half a world away

You're half a world away and no one is to blame
If love outlives its day and turns into an ember from a flame
I love you as before till words will be no more
Till I can't find a way to where you stay
Just half a world away

And I would cross the universe for you
But what good would it do if you weren't even there?
Till you return and until your way is clear
I will be here, not half a world away
