Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Everyone I know is lonely
God so far away
And my heart belongs to no one
So now sometimes I pray
[Verse 2]
Take the space between us
Fill it up some way
Take the space between us
Fill it up, fill it up
[Verse 3]
Oh my God, you take the biscuit
Treating me this way
Expecting me to treat you well
No matter what you say
[Verse 4]
How can I turn the other cheek?
It's black and bruised and torn
I've been waiting
Since the day that I was born
Fill it up, fill it up, fill it up
[Verse 5]
Take the space between us
Fill it up some way
Take the space between us
Fill it up, fill it up
[Verse 6]
Fill it up
Fill it up
Fill it up
Fill it up
[Verse 7]
The fat man in his garden
The thin man at his gate
My God, you must be sleeping
Wake up, it's much too late
[Verse 8]
Take the space between us
Fill it up some way
Take the space between us
Fill it up, fill it up
[Verse 9]
Fill it up
Fill it up
Fill it up
Fill it up
[Verse 10]
Do I have to tell the story
Of a thousand rainy days since we first met?
It's a big enough umbrella
But it's always me that ends up getting wet
