China China 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 a great WALL around you In your eyes I saw a 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 a great WALL around you In your eyes I saw a 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 a great WALL around you I can feel the distance I can feel the distance I can feel the distance getting close Acoustic piano and vocals - Tori Amos Bass - Mathew Seligman Drums - Chris Hughes Guitar - David Rhodes String arrangement - David Lord Violin - Stuart Gordon Oboe - Will Gregory Recorded by Paul Corkett and Steve Williams Mixed by Ross Cullum Produced by Ian Stanley
