Oh, uh-huh

Yeah, yeah, oh

Where you are seems to be

As far as an eternity

Outstretched arms, open hearts

And if it never ends, then when do we start?

I'll never leave you behind or treat you unkind

I know you understand, oh, whoa

And with a tear in my eye

Give me the sweetest goodbye

That I ever did receive

Pushing forward and arching back

Bring me closer to heart attack

Say goodbye and just fly away

When you come back, I have something to say, yeah

How does it feel to know you'll never have to be alone

When you get home, home?

There must be someplace here that only you and I could go

So I can show you how I

Dream away, every day

Try so hard to disregard

The rhythm of the rain that drops

And coincides with the beating of my heart

I'll never leave you behind or treat you unkind

And I know you'll understand, yeah, yeah, yeah

And with a tear in my eye

Give me the sweetest goodbye

That I ever, ever, ever did receive

Pushing forward and arching back

Bring me closer to heart attack

Say goodbye and just fly away

When you come back, I have something to say, yeah

How does it feel to know you'll never have to be alone

When you get home, home?

There must be someplace here that only you and I could go

So I can show you how I feel, feel, feel, feel

Yeah

Oh, yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah, yeah, oh

Pushing forward (yeah) and arching back (oh)

Bring me closer to heart attack (yeah-oh, ooh-oh, yeah)

How does it feel to know you'll never have to be alone

When you get home, home?

There must be someplace here that only you and I could go

So I can show (show, show, yeah) you how I feel

Show you how I feel, show you how I feel

Show you how (feel), show you, show (feel), show you how I feel

There must be someplace here that only you and I could go

So I can show you how I feel

Show you, show you, show you, show you, show
