I'm a billion ages past you A million years behind you too A thousand miles up in the air A trillion times I've seen you there Your hair is golden, mine is grey You walk on grass, it turns to hay Your blood is blue and your eyes are red My body strains, but the nerves are dead I can't reach you I've strained my eyes I can't reach you I've split my sides I can't reach trying to get on you See, feel or hear from you The distances grow greater now You drink champagne and past me plow You fly your plane right over my head You're so alive and I'm nearly dead I can't reach you With arms outstretched I can't reach you I crane my neck I can't reach trying to get on you See, feel or hear from you Once I caught a glimpse of your unguarded, untouched heart Our fingertips touched and then my mind tore us apart I can't reach you With arms outstretched I can't reach you I crane my neck I can't reach trying to get on you See, feel or hear from you I can't reach you With arms outstretched I can't reach you I crane my neck I can't reach trying to get on you See, feel or hear from you
