So Far Away

Herbert Grönemeyer


another telephone call 
we talk again for hours 
and still so much remains unspoken 
long-distance love is all we get 
i feel so far away, so weary 
i want to see your face and hold you close 
i only want to have you near me 

i need you here with me 
i want you to be with me 
i want you to want me 
just come here... 
wish you understood how i need your magic touch 
believe me when i tell you how much 
i miss you 

i lie awake at night 
you're running round my head 
and fight it as i might it won't get better 
i'm cracking up without you 
alone here, it feels like a sentence in hell 
and i want you more than i could ever tell 
more than i can ever explain 

i need you here ... 

i miss your head next to mine 
the soft smell of your body 
i miss your sweet talk in my ear 
our heartbeats locked together 
i miss all the things you make me feel... 
a love that lasts forever 

i need you here ...
