sometimes I think you want me to touch you

[chanaleh]

CHINA
all the way to New York
I can feel the distance getting close
you're right next to me
but I need an airplane
I can feel the DISTANCE as you breathe

sometimes I think you want me to touch you
but how can I when you build the great WALL around you
in your eyes I saw a future together
but you just look away in the distance

china
decorates our table
funny how the CRACKS don't seem to show
pour the wine dear
you say we'll take a holiday
but we never can agree on where to go

China
all the way to New York
maybe you got lost in MEXICO
you're right next to me
I think that you can hear me
funny how the distance learns to grow

you know how I've said that I could hear a song a hundred times, but on the hundred and first listen, hear something I never heard in it before? well, damn! this one's scary. and to think, Tori wrote that song without even meeting you-know-who...

Er... who? (Dare I ask? :-)

no, no, I meant your you-know-who...I was reading the Tori lyrics with you in mind....
