Lyrics: Rosa Walton
Music: Rosa Walton/Sam E. Yamaha
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
