Across The World

You're on a plane

flying back to your boyfriend

as I write this song for you

but I'll be okay

cause this is just the beginning

I struck the match that burns for you

I'll torch this city

and illuminate the sky

as I sit and think of you

it'll look so pretty

your silhouette in the moonlight

still nothing quite compares to you

so next time we stand face to face again

all my words will come out right

and if not I'll just sing this song to you

so you will know exactly what I'm feeling inside

we could run away forever

we could finally be together

and everything will be alright

you're on a plane

flying across the world

how did I let this pass me by?

I'm not okay

cause you're the perfect girl

I've been waiting for my whole life

I'll drown in my dreams

and wake in a cold sweat

cause it's you that's swimming in my mind

without you near me

I'm almost better off dead

but to see you I know I must survive

so next time we stand face to face again

all my words will come out right

and if not I'll just sing this song to you

so you will know exactly what I'm feeling inside

we could run away forever

we could finally be together

and everything will be alright

you're keeping me alive

just the thought of you could make me or break me

I don't want to die

I need to fix all the mistakes I've been making

you're keeping me alive

just the thought of you could make me or break me

I don't want to die

I need to fix all the mistakes I've been making

I need the chance to let you know

so next time we stand face to face again

all my words will come out right

and if not I'll just sing this song to you

so you will know exactly what I'm feeling inside

we could run away forever

we could finally be together

and everything will be alright.
