A
There's a girl
Across the sea
G
And though I'm happy being loved it doesn't feel like love to me.
A
Never feels like love to me.
A
There's a girl
Next to me
G
And she's happy being lovely and it's not enough for me.
A
It's not enough for me.
G F# D
You're out of mind, I'm out of time,
A G
I only want what I can't see,
D Dm A
But I'll still wait for her to run to me.
Once a boy
Now a man
G
And even though I've grown 'the best I could' is still the best I can.
D
I'm loving you the best I can
A
And the girl
Who's across the sea
G
And traveled halfway round the world to be the perfect girl for me
A
In all the ways you used to be.
G F# D
You're out of mind, I'm out of time
A G
I only want what I can't see
D Dm A
And everything about her's new to me.
E D G A
Now I see everything we do as a routine
E D G E
Familiarity breeds awful things in me.
G F# D
I was out of my mind, now I'll make time
A G
To be the man that I could be
D Dm A
And I was blind to think that you weren't right for me
G Gm D
And I was blind to think it lay across the sea
