Across the Sea - Alex Day

There’s a girl, across the sea

And though I’m happy being loved

It doesn’t feel like love to me

Never feels like love to me

There’s a girl, next to me

And she’s happy being lovely

And it’s not enough for me

It’s not enough for me

You’re out of mind, I’m out of time

I only want what I can’t see

And I will wait for her to run to me

Once a boy, now a man

And even though I’ve grown the best I could

It’s still the best I can

I’m loving you the best I can

And the girl, who’s 'cross the sea

And traveled halfway 'round the world

To be the perfect girl for me

In all the ways you used to be

You’re out of mind, I’m out of time

I only want what I can’t see

And everything about her is new to me

Now I see everything we do as the routine

Familiarity breeds awful things in me

I was out of my mind, and now I’ll make time

To be the man that I should be

And I was blind to think that you were right for me

And I was blind to think it lay across the sea
