[Verse]
Grace, have you braved the Atlantic ocean? You turned your back to the Mediterranean again
You're not being fair to yourself leaving it all behind. A vast array of blue from the sea to the sky
How is life now you're back in Delaware? Do you sleep comfortably knowing you could be somewhere else?
The East Coast is perfectly fine, if it wouldn't be this cold. You're reminiscing better days in front of the fireplace

[Chorus]
I am a European. I am waiting for love from an American woman
Time Zones separate us. You are eight hours behind, it's the middle of the night here

[Verse]
Fate, yours and mine are not likely to ever meet, like expectations of seeing each other in the streets
The slabs of grey concrete you walk, I will never set foot on. It is a sad determination I wish I could change

[Chorus]
I am a European. I am waiting for love from an American woman
Time Zones separate us. You are eight hours behind, it's the middle of the night here
