Sat on a park bench Two miles from home Smoking rollies The whole world in monochrome Words fell from my lips As we held one another And for the first time in a long time I see colour And when it gets too damn hard to say From 4500 miles away Don't be afraid When there's too much rain Put your pain on a plane And fly it back to me Fly it back to me That letter you wrote me Pinned proud to my wall I read when I need to When I'm feeling small And when I couldn't walk right You helped me stumble home To our favourite oasis song My crutches on cobblestone And when it gets too damn hard to say From 4500 miles away Don't be afraid When there's too much rain Put your pain on a plane And fly it back to me Fly it back to me I know the distance is temporary And it looks like you're living the dream But I'll listen close if you'd like to tell me That some nights it's not all that it seems Just remember In December I'll be there at your door Smiling and laughing and more Just like we did before And when it gets too damn hard to say From 4500 miles away Don't be afraid When there's too much rain Put your pain on a plane And fly it back to me Fly it back to me
