when were away i know you love me still you think you love me still but that doesnt make it easy for me to stay above the water here until another year treading till you can be with me because the day it makes the waves subside and i am occupied by one thing or another but when i lay my head on pillow foam i cannot feel at home because were not with each other i dont let waves break over you my friend as long as seas are calm and skies are blue but when the tides turn and the stormy seas descend theres an empty space in my arms that should be you when were apart the words you say are nice but words just cant suffice for the absence of your fragrance and though the art of pictures that you send can somehow help to mend the hole that holds your presence i know my heart is bound to leap and slide the miles to where you reside leaving me an empty carcass cause from the start of this whole distance thing cant hear your body sing and its filling me with darkness i dont let waves break over you my friend as long as seas are calm and skies are blue but when the tides turn and the stormy seas descend theres an empty space in my arms that should be you all i have are sheets of crashing waves without a rock to stay me from tossing and turning and rolling about on a shoreless sea till you hold my hand i cant find dry land when were away i know that my heart hated the day did us this distance part when were apart i simply cannot stay sated on art when me to sleep i lay i dont let waves break over you my friend as long as seas are calm and skies are blue but when the tides turn and the stormy seas descend theres an empty space in my arms that should be you should be you empty space ooh1
