Can't We Get Together?

Can we get together in the same time zone?

I could wait forever, but it's all that time alone

Can we get together? Can it be that good?

Things don't tend to work out like I planned them

But they could, but they could

What could be more subtle than a rose in bloom?

Another great remark from you

I'd just like to hear it in the same damn room

As who it is I'm talking to

Can we get together in the same time zone?

I could wait forever, but it's all that time alone

Can we get together? Can it be that good?

Things don't tend to work out like I planned them

But they could, but they could

Where are you tonight up here so far from me?

In another storm front squall?

Right there close beside you is where the hell I'd be

Listening to the same rainfall

Can we get together in the same time zone?

I could wait forever, but it's all that time alone

Can we get together? Can it be that good?

Things don't tend to work out like I planned them

But they could, but they could

No one's ever made it through the U.S. mail

Talking on the phone won't do

We talk every evening, baby, without fail

But I'm not in touch with you

Can we get together in the same time zone?

I could wait forever, but it's all that time alone

Can we get together? Can it be that good?

Things don't tend to work out like I planned them

But they could

Can we get together in the same time zone?

I could wait forever, but it's all that time alone

Can we get together? Can it be alright?

I could leave this morning and be there tomorrow night, oh
