I'll be back Sunday
I'm catchin' a flight
But you're out on Monday mornin'
Up before it's light
Darlin', it tears me apart
You're always so near, but so far away, ooh
You'll be home Tuesday
But I'm out too late
As your head touches the pillow
That's where I end my day
Darlin', it tears me apart
Always so near, but so far away, ay, ooh
Next time I find you next to me
There's no time to waste
Let's cut to the chase
I'm givin' you all my lovin' straight away, ay, ooh
We're both a captain
Of ships in the night
But we ain't got no lighthouse
Keepin' us in sight
Darlin', it tears me apart
You're always so near, but so far away, ay, ooh
Next time I find you next to me
There's no time to waste
Let's cut to the chase
I'm givin' you all my lovin' straight away, ay, ooh, oh
But if there's one night when the waters are still
We'd slow down our pace
We'd meet somewhere in the middle, maybe that'd be a start
You wouldn't be so quite, oh, so far away, ay, oh
Next time I find you next to me, yeah
There's no time to waste
Let's cut to the chase
I'm givin' you all my lovin' straight away, ay, oh (oh)
(Next time I find) you next to me, yeah (next to me)
(There's no time to waste) no time to waste
(Let's cut to the chase)
I'm givin' you all my lovin' straight away
Straight away
