A little went a long way You sent the words and they followed me home Alone on the walk look back again hear the wind billowing they come to take me away I see you frozen down the street I'm finally here We drive together going towards the light I step out into nothing and am tangled in the sea For now where we are, now that we are alone Some other time when I try to see you I taste nothing but the salty air Long distance replaces the feeling And my love has nothing to share For now... You call, coming closer with each day, day by day But you turn, only to tell me Saying goodbye again Broken records play around inside me And tell me that this is how it should be Shrapnel flying higher with the wind blowing debris So tell me again that you are going to leave A little went a long way You sent the words and they followed me home Alone on the walk look back again with my heart longing For you to take me away For now… © Lan Li 2009
