Halfway Round The World

Over my head

I saw the clouds

carrying memories

across the town

You were right here

You were surer than the sky,

when I felt like a sunset for a frightening while

You look at me in a place where all the songs must live

You bring to me a spark from all the Christmases

I can’t believe the things we saw today and that we’re halfway round the world, here

And don’t you know, don’t you know

how you flew me

What if that could dance right through me

I’ll let you know, let you know

I’m where you are

When it’s as great as that, how long can it last

How long can it last

Halfway round the world, around the world

Halfway round the world

Over my head

I zoomed so wide,

everyone I’ve ever loved held me at the same time

When it’s said in your voice

I’ll believe in it

And we’re almost there

And we almost kissed

So lost in this place where all the lights don’t rest

Caught up in some excruciating happiness

You look at me from halfway down the bar,

halfway round the world, here

And don’t you know, don’t you know

how you flew me

What if that could dance right through me

I’ll let you know, let you know

I’m where you are

When it’s as great as that, how long can it last

How long can it last

Halfway round the world, around the world

Halfway round the world
