It Looks Like Another Near Miss
Songtext

You took the short cut
And I went the long way
You had to be there
But I couldn’t stay

I stood apart
You were a part of the in-crowd
You were a member
I was not allowed

Was stuck down under
you sat on the world’s top
I had to run
And you couldn’t stop

You’re taking wing
I’m still standing on my feet
Sometimes I wonder
Will we ever meet?

Chorus:
It looks like another near miss
Oh, what can I do?
Please, give me a sign if you hear this
And I’ll run into you

I came to town
When you just started leaving
While I was on
You turned off your TV

You crossed the desert
I travelled the wild sea
Say will you ever
Run into me?

Chorus 2x

Was stuck down under
you sat on the world’s top
I had to run
And you couldn’t stop

You’re taking wing
I’m still standing on my feet
Sometimes I wonder
Will we ever meet?
Sometimes I wonder
Will we ever meet?
