Cranes loom on Paradise street
Train follows train
Sandwiches cold in plastic
Clothes cling thickly on skin
The sound of my own thoughts
is loud in my head
I'm away from home without you
Silent messages go back and forth
From another boardroom, another pen
i turn moments into memories
Like sea glass to show you
i hear your voice wordless
Your face comes unbidden
I'm away from home without you
When i'm elsewhere you're with me
Carried in my heart
My love knows no miles
No places, no distance
But I'm away from home without you
