Between You And Me
Almost every day, I am swept away
From the dull, void and null by the things you say
Wouldn't it be great, living in one state?
State of mind, intertwined, that you help create
When we're on the phone, I am no longer alone
It's a start, but my heart is still in another time zone
You're the greatest thing random fate couldn't bring
Still, I smile. Maybe I'll meet you in the spring
What if I don't? God I hope I do. Wishes come true
Waiting for everything to fall into place
So far a distance just to see face to face
Between you and me, I think rules don't apply
Between you and me is a space we can walk if we try
You are, indubitably, the loveliest possible person for me
Why weren't we thrown together, somewhere nice with perfect weather?
Where cosmic placement failed, where Serendipity dragged her tail
Is where we are right now. We must escape, but we don't know how
You know what would be rad? If I were rich, and if I had
An aeroplane with giant wings, and funky old propeller things
I would fly right by your place, and pick you up with gentle grace
And fly straight into outer space, just to see you face to face
And when we come back, we'll be fast asleep
Counting camels instead of sheep
Waiting for everything to fall into place
So far a distance just to see face to face
Between you and me, I think rules don't apply
Between you and me is a space we can walk if we try
Wonder if I'll ever be with you?
Do wishes come true? God I hope they do
