lyrics

Im going to write you a song
sitting at the top of a hill in hong kong
I had you yesterday but now your gone
Off by yourself to taiwan
I would have gone with you but I wasn’t feel strong
I am wearing my sweater and the sun is shining on me

and now that your gone
I miss you in the dawn
I want you by my side
I want you in the morning
And I want you in the night
I want you in my arms
Cuz girl we get along
Girl we get along

Its ok to be apart
Im not ready to be attached at the heart
If were beginning now we’ve had a good start
Ever since cupid threw his dart

I remember where we were
When it flew through the air
And hit us both square
And left us both bare
so now I want you near
I want you here I want you near I want you dear

And if your in hong kong
There is a place on the hill
Where I wrote you a song
About how we are good together

now im here all alone
your love is like a dream Im happy to have known
maybe soon we will talk on the telephone
we both like to travel so I can meet you on the road
because when we are apart
I feel it in the heart
I want you by my side
I want you in the morning
And I want you in the night
I want you in my arms
Because girl we get along
Girl we get along
