Other Side Of The World

Kt Tunstall · Radio 1's Live Lounge [2006]

Over the sea and far away

She's waiting like an iceberg

Waiting to change

But she's cold inside

She wants to be like the water



All the muscles tighten in her face

Buries her soul in one embrace

They're one and the same

Just like water



And the fire fades away

Most of every day

Is full of tired excuses

But it's too hard to say

I wish it were simple

But we give up easily

You're close enough to see that

You're the other side of the world, to me



On comes the panic light

Holding on with fingers and feelings alike

But the time has come

To move along



An the fire fades away

Most of every day

Is full of tired excuses

But it's too hard to say

I wish it were simple

But we give up easily

You're close enough to see that

You're the other side of the world



Can you help me?

Can you let me go?

And can you still love me

When you can't see me anymore?



And the fire fades away

Most of every day

Is full of tired excuses

But it's too hard to say

I wish it were simple

But we give up easily

You're close enough to see that

You're the other side of the world

The other side of the world

You're the other side of the world to me...
