Half a World Away

I'm half a world away from you
 Half a world away we're apart
 Africa and the bush took you far
 The lands, the story, the pictures, your car
 If I couldn't hold you for a while
 Well if I could would you stay mine
 Half a world away from you
 The air were you filmed today is filled with
 The animals in the jungle have no
 The phone in the hotel room never rings
 How can I complain I cannot see
 If I couldn't hold you for a while
 Well if I could would you stay mine
 Half a world away from you
 When the plane comes in to touch the ground
 Children lift their heads to hear that sound
 Wear a heroes badge upon your chest
 My head is slightly swollen from this test
 If I couldn't hold you for a while
 Well if I could would you stay mine
 Half a world away from you
 I'm half a world away from you
