I watched you leave, I cried the tears
And I relive that moment every minute you're not here
And every day is harder than the day before
But I'll be patient until you find your way
To my side of the world

'Cause on my side of the world
You've got a heart to come home to
My side of the world where all the crazy is gone
When that long road ahead is finally behind you
I'll be right where you left me alone
Holdin' on on my side of the world

Our friends all ask if you've called
And I see their face when I respond, No, not at all”
'Cause in their eyes, they wonder what I'm waitin' for
Deep inside I know you're comin' back
To my side of the world

'Cause on my side of the world
You've got a heart to come home to
My side of the world where all the crazy is gone
When that long road ahead is finally behind you
I'll be right where you left me alone
Holdin' on on my side of the world

I hope this letter finds you, then again I hope it don't
'Cause that would mean you're on your way right now
But, baby, if it does and if you're not
Let this remind you of what you've got

On my side of the world
You've got a heart to come home to
My side of the world where all the crazy is gone
When that long road ahead is finally behind you
I'll be right where you left me alone
Holdin' on on my side of the world
On my side of the world
