The Wild Reeds back to earth

Select language to translate this lyric

If I could take sunlight
And place it into your eyes;
If I could pull out the stars
And place them into your arms.
If I could give you the world,
Would you come back to earth?
If I could throw you a line,
Would you reach the other side?
Or, would it slip past your grip
While you take another trip?
If I could give you the world,
Would you come back to eath?
All of your things left in boxes
From your former residence.
Medical bills left in a pile
That you forward to my address.
If you should ever call me,
Please leave me a message.
'Cause I've you since we were children,
Still your number's always changing.
So, I'll take all of these boxes
And hope there's no trace of pain
Hidden in the contents
Of the lighters you've engraved.
With the dying needle
That you let me betrack
Along the very arms that
Will forever hold you back.
If I could give you the world,
Would you come back to earth?
If I could give you the world,
Would you come back to me?
