So you run away
I told you all these things
and yet you couldn't stay
Wouldn't even stop to give the time of day
And everything I said won't make these things okay

Cause all I have to say is

Girl you mean
so much to me
I wish that I
could make you see
The way your wanting me to be
Is just as easy as 1-2-3
Across the world
so far away
I knew the words to make you stay
Of course it's what I didn't say
Still I knew the words to make you stay

You smile at me
and wave to me
I know exactly where and what I want to be
And if I'd wait for this

So run away
What were all the times we could have had that day
Everybody knows that we would be okay
What they say should never matter anyway
So all I have to say is

Girl you mean
so much to me
I wish that I
could make you see
The way your wanting me to be
Is just as easy as 1-2-3
Across the world
so far away
I knew the words to make you stay
Of course it's what I didn't say
Still I knew the words to make you stay

Girl you mean
so much to me
I wish that I
could make you see
The way your wanting me to be
Is just as easy as 1-2-3

You smile at me
and wave to me
I know exactly where and what I want to be
And if I wish for this
