Elysian - America

It’s been nearly two years since you left
And every math period I still hear your exasperated breath
I never really had anything with you
But everything you said about politics was always true
And you’ve probably changed
And I’m missing you even though you’re not the same
But then I dream of driving off in your car
Headed somewhere far away
And I need your smile
I know it’s been a while
I’m sorry
So damn sorry
But it’s too far to America
It’s too far to go see you again
It’s too far to America
But it’s too far to go to see you again
Remember walking around
We had nothing to do
And I remember realising just how much I cared about you
You’d always speak your mind
Even if it wasn’t kind
And I always wondered how you ended up with guys who never cried
You’d call me up
Sometimes at three am
And we’d laugh and talk about the things that mattered
And you’d tell me all about him
But it’s too far to America
It’s too far to go to see you again
It’s too far to America
But it’s too far to go see you again
Then I realised the other day
That I’m running out of time to visit your place
I’ve never been a fan of the states
But I’ll meet you at the gates and we can go for a drive
For a drive
Then it’s always right here
That’s when I realise
That it’s too far to America
It’s too far to go to see you again
It’s too far to America
It’s too far to go to see you again
Again
It’s too far to America
