Lyrics
I couldn't wait to see the last of you
It felt like our time was through
In bitter games your name became taboo
Distant choices, i wish i could undo
But now the tables turned and you are free
Not chasing shadows anymore
Its left for me to plea for mercy
Because i want you, after all
Left here to drift in muddy waters
Orders of your own
Feeling unfit to be on board with
Anyone
Because your the captain
Now i'm trapped in solo mutiny
Since you've gone
I'm flotsam, jetsam
All washed out to sea
Reduced to living out a long lost cause
I'm used to pulling out the shortest straws
But i'm not giving up
Or pressing pause
If i'm remotely yours
I'm in pursuit to make you try to see
We've got a certain kind of chemistry
You can be the sheriff, i'll be deputy
If i'm remotely yours
Looks like you've sectioned your emotions
Cautions the buzz word
Well, this shipwreck's checking your devotion
To what's in you, left unheard
Because your the answer
To the chance of ending my problems
Kidnapped, wrapped in rhymes and riddles
I'll pay the ransom
I'm on a mission baby, can't you see
That i think a coalition is meant to be
Welling up with wishing
That you'll set me free
Am i remotely yours ?
I get no sleep your always on my mind
It's twenty four seven
Not mentioning overtime
Turning up to eleven
If i knew that you'd be mine
Am i remotely yours?
