lyrics

There are things in the distance,
they sometimes make you smile.
You've been taking a while to reply,
and there are things in the sky,

between here and well...yeah
between here and well...there
between here and hell...yeah
Oh, be there

There are birds that only sing
when the song you're playing ends.
There are dawns that go unnoticed
until the weekends,

between here and well...yeah
between here and well...there
between here and hell...yeah
Oh, be there

I chose a star to see, you said it was a plane,
I thought I saw it move, gliding slowly through the air,
and then I saw that it was still and hadn't moved at all,
we promise that we care, or at least that we'll be there,
and when we talk of prayer, we ask if someone's there.
You pointed out Mars, I didn't know it was up there!
When we were just kids, playing truth or dare,
dares were all that mattered and now I really couldn't care,
give me truth and be there! Oh, truth, be there!

If I were rich, I'd live here,
where the blossom falls on cars.
It's not an affectation anymore,
when I look up at the stars.

between here and well...yeah
between here and well...there
between here and hell...yeah
I will be there.
