Shes leaving in the morning, nine oclock in the day

She hears that highway song calling and theres nothing I can say

Nine oclock in the morning, shell be sailing away

Deep blue ocean please carry her safely, take her away

Cause she wants space, oh space

How could she ask for more

Space, oh thats what she needs to be sure

I already gave her more space than my heart could afford

How can she ask for more

Now its ten oclock in the evening, Im standing here by the phone

Eleven hours youre leaving but your already gone

You can still come to see me, you can find me here if you want

Cause Ill be waiting all evening, but I know that you wont

You want space, oh space

How could you ask for more

Space, oh thats what you need to be sure

I already gave you more space than my heart could afford

How could you ask for more

Theres a great big world full of space out

Theres just waiting for you to explore

There is a big old world of dreams and regrets

Come on what are you waiting for

You had space, oh space

How could you ask for more

Space, oh lord thats what you need to be sure

I already gave you more space than my heart could afford

How could you ask for more

How could you ask for more
