I'm a billion ages past you
A million years behind you too
A thousand miles up in the air
A trillion times I've seen you there

Your hair is golden, mine is grey
You walk on grass, it turns to hay
You blood is blue and your eyes are red
My body strains, but the nerves are dead

I can't reach your heart
I've strained my eyes
I can't reach your heart
I've split my sides
I can't reach your heart
Tryin' to get on you
See, feel or hear from you

The distances grow greater now
You drink champagne and past me plow
You fly your plane right over my head
You're still alive and I'm nearly dead

I can't reach your heart
With arms outstretched
I can't reach your heart
I crane my neck
I can't reach your heart
Tryin' to get on you
See, feel or hear from you

Once I caught a glimpse
Of your unguarded, untouched heart
Our fingertips touched and then
My mind tore us apart

I can't reach your heart
With arms outstretched
I can't reach your heart
I crane my neck
I can't reach your heart
Tryin' to get on you
See, feel or hear from you

I can't reach your heart
With arms outstretched
I can't reach your heart
I crane my neck
I can't reach you
Tryin' to get on you
See, feel or hear from you
