Earth's Circumference Lyrics

baby, can you see the stars tonight?
or are there only man-made lights
to remind you that you're gone?
baby, can you see the stars from there?
or does the city atmosphere
leave you nothing to wish on?

lately, i've forgotten who i am
i stumble through the days demands
barely holding it in line

lately, i don't see the sun at all
only darkness, dear, from rise to fall
like there's nothing left to shine

i buy what the sunshine sells me
i know it now (i know it now)
i'll never let a maptack pin me down
daily, i look at your town on the map
but i'm so bad at time zone math
that i dont know when to phone

mail me. tell me that you're getting by
tell me that you're doing fine
you wont always be alone

cause there's nothing left between us
just the earth's circumference
yeah there's nothing left between us,
just the greatest distances

cause there's nothing left to dream of
just the earth's circumference
yeah there's nothing left to dream of
just the greatest distances

witness this dismay
written in the days and nights when you're away

i buy what the sunshine sells me
i know it now
i'll never let a maptack pin me down
