When I’m far away from you

The world gets a little bit bigger

Checking into hotel rooms with bibles in their drawers

Noisy refrigerators

Logging into the wifi, unpacking my bag

Waiting until it’s late enough to call you

And I’m thinking

You’re all I love in this world

My darling

Please keep me close to your heart

When I am so far away from home

So far away from home

Driving for miles and miles

The road unfurling like a ribbon

Drinking black coffee in quiet diners

Talking to a stranger for a spell

Wide open skies, changing faces

Losing my mind a little bit

And I’m thinking

You’re all I love in this world

My darling

Please keep me close to your heart

When I am so far away from home

So far away from home

No I don’t sleep well, sleep well

Stuck like a ghost in a haunted house

Oh I don’t sleep well, sleep well

Without you by my side

Without you by my side

Soon we’ll be back together

Safe in your arms once again

It might feel strange for a minute or three

Then I’ll make you laugh and we’ll be fine

And I’m thinking

You’re all I love in this world

My darling

Please keep me close to your heart

When I am so far away from home

So far away from home
