You asked me a question I think I was somewhere else You said you're not listening You said I never do But I try I try so hard But it's so hard in this big world It's so big and so shiny and All around us like a big cartoon You asked me to help you build a bridge So we could meet in between But I'm building my own bridge To somewhere far from here I'm building my own bridge I'll call you when I get there You said you were leaving I heard you sweet and clear You said it's not easy With you you're never here I'm lost and I don't know why You seem so far away I see you working so hard Working so hard each day Building your own bridge To somewhere so far away Your building your own bridge Don't worry I won't stand in your way I'm building my own bridge My own bridge I can call my own I'm building my own bridge I'll call you when I get home
