EN

Crossed the flatlands, crossed the hills Crossed the mountains that rose in the sea Faced the winds of Singapore And that boy is all I see I wanna board a night plane So I can hold him close again, oh I try and I try, you know I just can't let go I try and I try, you know I just can't let go Left the city of my learning And cast my dreams in the street I left the old to find the new And that boy is all I see I can almost feel his face Touch his lips, oh, I can taste him, oh I try and I try, you know I just can't let go I try and I try, you know I just can't let go I'm a stranger to this land I'm a stranger to the salty sea I left it all except that boy Now he says he loves me I stand before the blue Pacific I brought my spirit here to free I crossed the Rockies to the South And that boy is all I see I'd cross the country on a train Just to lie with him again I try and I try, you know I just can't let go I try and I try, you know I just can't let go I try and I try, you know I just can't let go I try and I try, you know I just can't let go I try and I try, you know I just can't let go
