So you run away, told you all these things
And yet you couldn't stay, wouldn't even stop
To give the time of day and everything I said
Won't make these things okay 'cause all I have to say is

Girl, you mean so much to me
I wish that I could make you see
The way you wanted me to be
Is just as easy as one, two, three

Across the world, so far away
I knew the words to make you stay
Of course it's what I didn't say
Still I knew the words to make you stay

You smile at me and wave to me
I know exactly where and what
I want to be and if I wait for this

So run away, what were all the times
We could have had that day, everybody knows
That we would be okay, what they say
Should never matter anyway, so all I have to say is

Girl, you mean so much to me
I wish that I could make you see
The way you wanted me to be
Is just as easy as one, two, three

Across the world, so far away
I knew the words to make you stay
Of course it's what I didn't say
Still I knew the words to make you stay

Girl, you mean so much to me
I wish that I could make you see
The way you wanted me to be
Is just as easy as one, two, three

You smile at me and wave to me
I know exactly where and what
I want to be and if I wait for this
