Only one shadow on the wall   Just one candle burning bright   I hold your picture to my heart   I'm alone inside the night   The sun comes up in China ... the lights go on in Rome       Half the world is waiting for someone they can hold   Half the world is praying they'll never be alone   Everytime you leave me a part of me goes too   And half your world is waiting here for you       I reach across an empty bed   I hear your whisper in my ear   But like the sun without the moon   It's half a dream without you here   The train that takes you from me   Brings somebody home       Half the world is waiting for someone they can hold   Half the world is praying they'll never be alone   Everytime you leave me a part of me goes too   And half your world is waiting here for you       Baby the earth stands still   When I'm lying next to you   No matter where you go   Our whole world's inside this room   The sun comes up in China   The lights go on in Rome ... oh       Half the world is waiting for someone they can hold   Half the world is praying they'll never be alone   And everytime you leave me my heart breaks in two   And half the world is waiting here for you       I'm waiting here for you ...
