Far Away

Oh I wish that I was thinner, my teeth a little whiter

Most of all I wish that I could hold your hand

Oh I wish my hair was longer, that I stood a little taller

But at night my dear it's you that's on my mind

In the morning I'd think clearer

If you were just a little nearer

Yet still we could touch but you'd be far away

I wish that I was nearby to sit and watch the paint dry

It wouldn't be a waste of time if we did it together

Oh and next we could watch the grass grow and wonder "where did all the time go?"
