Across The Sea Paroles

There's a girl, next to me
And she's happy being lovely,
And it's not enough for me.
It's not enough for me.

You're out of mind, I'm out of time,
I only want what I can't see.
And I will wait for her to run to me.

Once a boy, now a man,
And even though I've grown the best I could,
It's still the best I can.
I'm loving you the best I can.

And the girl, who's 'cross the sea,
And travelled halfway 'round the world
To be the perfect girl for me,
In all the ways you used to be.
Now I see everything we do as the routine.
Familiarity breeds awful things in me.

I was out of my mind, and now I'll make time,
To be the man that I should be,
And I was blind to think that you were right for me.

And I was blind to think it lay across the sea.
