  • My mind runs away to you
    With a thought I hope you'll see
    Can't see where it's wandered to
    But I know where it wants to be

    I'm waiting patiently
    Though time is moving slow
    I have one vacancy
    And I wanted you to know that

    You're the one, designed for me
    A distant stranger, that I will complete
    I know you're out there, we're meant to be
    So keep your head up, and make it to me
    And make it to me

    So sick of this lonely air
    It seems such a waste of breath
    So much that I need to share
    So much to get off my chest

    I'm waiting patiently
    Though time is moving slow
    I have one vacancy
    And I wanted you to know that

    You're the one, designed for me
    A distant stranger, that I will complete
    I know you're out there, we're meant to be
    So keep your head up, and make it to me

    Make it to me
    And make it to me
    Make it to me Writer/s: Howard Lawrence, James Napier, Sam Smith
