I'm waiting for the earth to turn green

Everything you are

Is in the sun that shines

I'm waiting for the wheels

To turn to bring you home

I see the people in the postcards that you sent

You have a view of the sea and the boats

I'm waiting for the earth to turn green

Everything you are

Is in the sun that shines

I'm waiting for the wheels

To turn to bring you home

I'm waiting for the wheels

To turn to bring you home

You're far away from me now

And it's hard for me to see how

We can ever be the same again

I'm waiting for the earth to turn green

Everything you are

Is in the sun that shines

I'm waiting for the wheels

To turn to bring you home

I see the people in the postcards that you sent

You have a view of the sea and the boats

You're far away from me now

And it's hard for me to see how

We can ever be the same again

We can never be the same again
