Half the world
Only one shadow on the wallJust one candle burning brightI hold your picture to my heartI'm alone inside the nightThe sun comes up in China ... the lights go on in Rome
Half the world is waiting for someone they can holdHalf the world is praying they'll never be aloneEverytime you leave me a part of me goes tooAnd half your world is waiting here for you
I reach across an empty bedI hear your whisper in my earBut like the sun without the moonIt's half a dream without you hereThe train that takes you from meBrings somebody home
Half the world is waiting for someone they can holdHalf the world is praying they'll never be aloneEverytime you leave me a part of me goes tooAnd half your world is waiting here for you
Baby the earth stands stillWhen I'm lying next to youNo matter where you goOur whole world's inside this roomThe sun comes up in ChinaThe lights go on in Rome ... oh
Half the world is waiting for someone they can holdHalf the world is praying they'll never be aloneAnd everytime you leave me my heart breaks in twoAnd half the world is waiting here for you
I'm waiting here for you ...
