Intro: verse 1: I tried to leave it all behind me But I woke up and there, they were beside me And I don't believe it but I guess it's true Some feelings, they can travel too Oh there it is again, sitting on my chest Makes it hard to catch my breath, I scramble for the light to change Pre-Chorus 1: You're always on my mind You're always on my mind And I never minded being on my own Then something broke in me and I wanted to go home To be where you are But even closer to you, you seem so very far And now I'm reaching out with every note I sing And I hope it gets to you on some Pacific wind Wraps itself around you and whispers in your ear Tells you that I miss you and I wish that you were here ( ) verse 2: And if I stay home, I don't know there'll be so much That I'll have to let go, you're disappearing all the time But I still see you in the light, for you, the shadows fight And it's beautiful but there's that tug in the sight I must stop time traveling, you're always on my mind Pre-Chorus 2: You're always on my mind You're always on my mind And I never minded being on my own Then something broke in me and I wanted to go home To be where you are But even closer to you, you seem so very far And now I'm reaching out with every note I sing And I hope it gets to you on some Pacific wind Wraps itself around you and whispers in your ear Tells you that I miss you and I wish that you were here Bridge: (here) (here) (here) (here) We all need something watching over us Be it the falcons, the clouds or the cross And then the sea swept in and left us all speechless Speechless And I never minded being on my own Then something broke in me and I wanted to go home To be where you are But even closer to you, you seem so very far And now I'm reaching out with every note I sing And I hope it gets to you on some Pacific wind Wraps itself around you and whispers in your ear Tells you that I miss you and I wish that you were here Outro: Wish that you were here Wish that you were here Wish that you were here I wish that you
