Feels like i'm standing in china, while you're in L.A
And i'm sending a sigh up and hoping you'll stay.
I know you, there's no need to put your walls up.
I will never hurt you.
It's true, I'm falling too.
Don't hide it, I will not desert you.
What would I do without you?
Do without you?
Feels like I'm standing in china, while you're in L.A.
And i'm sending the sign up and hoping you'll stay.
Feels like I'm standing in china, so far away.
Come closer to me, come closer to me.
Cause this can work if you let it, work if you let it,
oh ohhhh
This can work if you let it, work if you let it oh ohhhhh
They say distance makes the heart grow fonder...
But I don't think I can take it
You're right here, let's not fear any longer.
Ohh
I believe we can make it.
What would i do without you? Do without you?
Feels like I'm standing in china, while you're in L.A.
And i'm sending the sign up and hoping you'll stay.
Feels like I'm standing in china, so far away.
Come closer to me, come closer to me.
Cause this can work if you let it, work if you let it,
oh ohhhh
This can work if you let it, work if you let it oh ohhhhh
Break down your walls, you can still have it all.
Don't wanna fall apart.
I know there's a way, to get you to stay.
Feels like I'm standing in china, while you're in L.A.
And i'm sending the sign up and hoping you'll stay.
Feels like I'm standing in china, while you're in L.A.
And i'm sending the sign up and hoping you'll stay.
Feels like I'm standing in china, so far away.
Come closer to me, come closer to me.
Cause this can work if you let it, work if you let it,
oh ohhhh
This can work if you let it, work if you let it oh ohhhhh
