I saw the news this morning
And saw your face across the screen.
And as I poured my coffee,
I picked up a magazine...
But as I turned the page
And looked inside...
There you were again (there you were).
Oh, these lonely times,
They never seem to end.
You're too far.
I know I should be there where you are.
Today I did some shopping,
Just had to clear my mind again,
I can't stop thinking about you.
I hopped into a taxi,
In a moment I was home,
Home again...
But as I turned the key
And slept inside,
My heart could not pretend (could not pretend).
Oh, these lonely times,
They never seem to end.
You're too far.
I know I should be there where you are.
Tossing and turning in my sleep,
I can't take being without you.
I'm gonna catch the next plane out,
I got to get to where you are,
No matter how near or far,
I got to get there where you are,
I know.
But as I turned the key
And slept inside,
My heart could not pretend (could not pretend).
Oh, these lonely times,
They never seem to end.
You're too far.
I know I should be there where you are.
I wanna be where you are.
I need to be where you are.
I wanna be I wanna be, baby.
You know I need to be.
I know I should be there where you are.
