this is the closest

to this friend that i've been

i hope you find it

on greener ground and bluer

 i'll cry until i can't see the

 whites of your eyes

 for two more years

for two more years

Verse 2

i hope i find my home

 and i hope you're the first one in it

i know it won't be the same

i'll be there if you need

run around the world with me

 state your distance but

 it's not a million miles away

if this is what will

really make you happy

then i'll say that

 we'll be old enough to

 enough to pretend

this is the

Until I see you

see you again
