All aligned, I feel you close The open sky above us knows We're far away, we're drifting further Expanding like the beaming lights Words are flowing out like through a tearing page Collect our thoughts like tears in a paper cup And so I try, connect the dots to make an outline For the spaces in our minds Could I ever paint our world the way that I see it? Could I ever make you see the way that I feel it? Could I ever find the words to fill all these pages? Could I ever close the gap between our minds? But I'm still trying I'm still here And I will find A way for us to understand All the spaces, spaces, spaces, between us All the spaces, spaces, spaces, between All we are, slip away and walk in silence Closing in, closer than we've ever been I'll find my way through all the colors in your eyes And float above the atmosphere Could I ever see the world the way that you see it Could I ever take your place and look at me from your perspective Could you ever show me what it's like on the other side Could you ever close the open gaps in my mind Cos I'm still trying I'm still here And I will find A way for us to understand All the spaces, spaces, spaces, between us All the spaces, spaces, spaces, between On and on, closing in, I know I'll find it We're beyond the borders of the great divide Your eyes like mine, staring into open spaces All across the universe
