Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I saw the news this morning
And saw your face across the screen
And as I poured my coffee
I picked up a magazine
[Verse 2]
But as I turned the page (Ooh), and looked inside (Inside)
There you were again (There you were)
Oh, these lonely times, they never seem to end
(You're too far)
I know I should be there where you are
[Verse 3]
Today I did some shopping
Just had to clear my mind again
(I can't stop thinking about you)
I hopped into a taxi
And in a moment I was home, home again
[Verse 4]
But as I turned the key (Ooh), and stepped inside (Inside)
My heart would not pretend (Not pretend)
Oh, those feelings, not those feelings, not again
(You're too far)
I know I should be there where you are
[Verse 5]
Tossing and turning in my sleep (In my sleep)
Can't take being without you (Being without you)
I'm gonna catch the next plane out (Plane out)
I've got to get to where you are (Where you are)
No matter how near or far
I've got to get to where you are
[Verse 6]
But as I turned the key (Ooh), and stepped inside (Inside)
My heart would not pretend (Not pretend)
Oh, these lonely times, they never seem to end
(You're too far)
Yes, I know I should be there where you are
[Verse 7]
(I wanna be where you are)
(I wanna be where you are)
(I wanna be where you are)
[Verse 8]
(I wanna be where you are)
(I wanna be where you are)
(I wanna be where you are)
I know I should be there where you are
