Where You Are

I saw the news this morning
And saw your face across the screen
And as I poured my coffee
I picked up a magazine

But as I turned the page
And looked 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

Today I did some shopping
Just had to clear my mind again
I can't stop thinkin' bout you
I hopped into a taxi
And in a moment I was home
Home again

But as I turned the key
And slept inside
My heart could 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

Tossing and turning in my sleep
Can't take being without you
I'm gonna catch the next plane out
I've got to get to where you are
No matter how near or far
I've got to get there where you are

But as I turned the key
And slept inside
My heart could not pretend (not pretend)
Oh these lonely times
They never seem to end
You're too far
I know I should be there where you are
I wanna be where you are
I need to be where you are
I wanna be, I wanna be baby
You know I need to be
I know I should be there where you are
