She's leaving in the morning, nine o'clock in the day
She hears that highway song calling and there's nothing I can say

Nine o'clock in the morning, she'll 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 that's what she needs to be sure
I already gave her more space than my heart could afford
How can she ask for more

Now it's ten o'clock in the evening, I'm standing here by the phone
Eleven hours you're leaving but your already gone

You can still come to see me, you can find me here if you want
Cause I'll be waiting all evening, but I know that you won't
You want space, oh space
How could you ask for more
Space, oh that's what you need to be sure

I already gave you more space than my heart could afford
How could you ask for more

There's a great big world full of space out
There's 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 that's 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
