Lyrics
[Soft Felt Piano Intro]
The clock reads midnight on my wall
I'm waiting for your morning call
[Verse 1]
Twelve hours difference between our days
Looking at the map through a misty haze
You're waking up as I go to sleep
A sacred promise that we swore to keep
I see your message flashing on the screen
Bridging every ocean in between
[Pre-Chorus]
Miles are only numbers in the air
When every thought of mine is there
[Chorus]
Long distance love across the rolling sea
You are the only home that calls to me
Half a world away but in my every breath
Loving you through distance, loving you till death
The silence deep may keep our hands apart
But nothing touches what is in our heart
[Verse 2]
I keep your sweater on the armchair still
It smells like lavender and autumn chill
I count the calendars upon the shelf
And save my truest love for you yourself
[Chorus]
Long distance love across the rolling sea
You are the only home that calls to me
Half a world away but in my every breath
Loving you through distance, loving you till death
The silence deep may keep our hands apart
But nothing touches what is in our heart
[Bridge]
Hold on tight, the boarding gate is near
The day is coming when I wipe each tear
No more screens, no more long goodbyes
Just you and me beneath our hometown skies
[Chorus]
Long distance love across the rolling sea
You are the only home that calls to me
Half a world away but in my every breath
Loving you through distance, loving you till death
The silence deep may keep our hands apart
But nothing touches what is in our heart
[Outro]
Across the sea...
Soon I will be home with you.
[Fade Out]
[End]
