China all the way to New York

I can feel the distance getting close

You’re right next to me but I need an airplane

I can feel the distance as you breathe

 

Sometimes I think you want me to touch you

How can I when you build the great wall around you

In your eyes I saw a future together

Oh you just look away in the distance

 

China decorates our table

Funny how the cracks don’t seem to show

Pour the wine dear

You say we’ll take a holiday but we never can agree on where to go and

 

Sometimes I think you want me to touch you

How can I when you build the great wall around you

In your eyes I saw a future together

Oh you just look away in the distance

 

Hey la la le le la la

Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah

Hey la la la

Ah ah ah ah

Ah ah ah yea la la

 

China all the way to New York

Maybe you got lost in Mexico

You’re right next to me

I think that you can hear me

Funny how the distance learns to grow

 

Sometimes I think you want me to touch you

How can I when you build the great wall around you

La la la la la la la la

I can feel the distance

I can feel the distance

I can feel the distance getting close
