All along the shore Where the waving waters keep the score Suddenly you arrive A distant star in two lovers' eyes
But you had no choice Appearing in this place Before you had a voice You were born to run the race
You're different every day And you grow in every way But your thoughts, your friends, your face Are just visitors who leave without a trace
So if the highs of youth Have got you crashing down to earth It's time to face the truth Of your pain, your love, your hurt
Your world is turning I can feel it turn away I come towards you But you seem so far away The world is turning It will always be that way I run towards you But you seem so far away
You seem so far away You seem so far away
You may be hypnotised Or perhaps you've realised? That to be famous and thin Is the greatest goal of the age we're living in
Way up on high There's an order to the stars It's up to you and I To change what's on our cards
The world is turning I can feel it turn away I come towards you But you seem so far away The sun is burning It will always be that way We may not have tomorrow But we'll never fade away Never fade away
