Well, your taxi is leaving
And I'm here in the hall
You know I only just kissed you
But it feels like you've already gone
To the other side of the world

I try to keep it together
Turn my face to the wall
Take the next elevator
But it feels like you've already gone
To the other side of the world

I know you're leaving, you've got plans to make
Don't catch me crying as you walk away
I'm right here, you're out there
Till you're back again, I'll be holding on

But now I'm left with the silence
On the 25th floor
Above the city and sirens
'Cause it feels like you've already gone
To the other side of the world

I know you're leaving you've got plans to make
Don't catch me crying as you walk away
I'm right here, you're out there
Till you're back again, I'll be holding on

I got everything I want
But tell me what's the use?
When the one thing that I need
Has no substitute
So I'd run a thousand miles
Just to be with you
Just to be with you

You make your way through the traffic
Forty minutes or more
Get to the airport departures
But it feels like you've already gone
To the other side of the world

I know you're leaving you've got plans to make
But I know I can't just let you walk away
So for wrong or for right, I'll be by your side
We'll be holding on

Now my taxi is waiting
Told my friends not to call
Got my suitcase and ticket
By tomorrow you know I'll be gone
To the other side of the world
