Every time I think of you it's like the last beat of my heart   The memory of leaving you is tearing me apart   No waves no tears no backward glance   But I'll always hold you dear   Never regret but I'll never forget   'Cos there's not enough heaven here      Hands across the ocean, reaching out for you   Across the waves, across the water   Hands, across the ocean      And every time I'm missing you I just can't let it show   And every time I want to cry I just can't let it go   all wine and song and masquerade and refuge holds me dear   Ribbons and lace and daisy chains   But there's not enough heaven here      Hands across the ocean, reaching out for you   Across the waves, across the water, reaching out for you   Hands across the ocean, reaching out for you   Across the waves, across the water   Hands, across the ocean      Bangles beads and lipstick games   And comfort holds me dear   Velvet and lace and perfumed sheets   But there's not enough heaven   Not enough heaven here      Hands across the ocean, reaching out for you   Across the waves, across the water, reaching out for you   Hands across the ocean, reaching out for you   Across the waves, across the water   Hands, across the ocean
