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
