China

Just a lyrics only post. I never actually ever read these lyrics before, but something moved me today to actually read to see what she was singing. I never liked tori before. Some of her stuff is still a bit annoying, but then sometimes..its cool and it makes sense to me on why people like her so much.

Tori Amos - China Lyrics


All the way to New York
I can feel the distance getting close
You're right next to me
But I need an airplane
I can feel the distance as you breathe
Sometimes I think you want me to touch you
How can I when you build the great wall around you
In your eyes I saw the future
Together you just look away in the distance


China decorates our table
Funny how the cracks don't seem to show
Pour the wine dear
You say we'll take a holiday
But we never can agree on where to go


Sometimes I think you want me to touch you
How can I when you build the great wall around you
In your eyes I saw the future
Together you just look away in the distance


China all the way to New York
Maybe you got lost in Mexico
You're right next to me
I think that you can hear me
Funny how the distance
Learns to grow


Sometimes I think you want me to touch you
How can I when you build the great wall around you
In your eyes I saw the future
Together you just look away in the distance


I can feel the distance

I can feel the distance

I can feel the distance getting close
