You get hurt by people you don't even like
What you should know
You're wasting your emotion when you should be listening
cold wind blow holding hands with someone new
By the big old fellow ocean

It takes courage to turn your back on the shore
Of a luring promise
The safe land of strain and sacrifice
Leading you astray on an empty quiet
But the place that you seek is an sea of delight
and only a joyful heart
will make a port in you
The heaven of happiness

I wrap myself in a blanket,
And pretend it's your arms.
Because maybe if you were here,
Things wouldn't be so hard.

I rest my head on my pillow,
And pretend it's your chest.
Because maybe if you were here,
My heart would ache less.

I close my eyes and sigh,
And pretend these miles don't exist.
Because they overwhelm me,
Completely,
All I want is to feel your kiss.
