THE STORY BEHIND THE SONG

Asha

A little closer across the miles

Daniel is studying on another continent for a year, so his mornings meet my evenings. I made him a song about voice notes, his chipped coffee cup and wanting our ordinary Tuesdays back.

Asha and Daniel are living on different continents for a year while Daniel studies. Asha makes a song about voice notes, time zones and the ordinary life they want to share again.

Read the lyrics
[Verse 1] Your morning finds my evening with the dishes in the sink, You show me through your window what the weather people think. I save the funny little things that happen on my train, So we can have a Tuesday that belongs to us again. [Chorus] Different mornings, one familiar voice, Across a sea of miles we make the same small choice. Tell me all the boring things; I want them every one, Till your coat is by my doorway and this waiting time is done. [Verse 2] Your coffee cup is still here with the chip beside the blue, I took it down on Sunday just to have a drink with you. The screen froze on your smile; I kept on talking anyway, About a neighbour's noisy cat and how I wished that you could stay. [Bridge] I don't need a movie ending or an airport full of cheers, Just your keys beside my keys after this complicated year. We'll argue over dinner, let the laundry take its time, And fall asleep in ordinary silence, your hand resting next to mine. [Chorus] Different mornings, one familiar voice, Across a sea of miles we make the same small choice. Tell me all the boring things; I want them every one, Till your coat is by my doorway and this waiting time is done.
