Here,
If you want me;
Listening so close,
From far away.
I memorized
What you told me,
Like a foreigner
On holiday.
I know to smile
At confusion,
And not forget
The soul
That smiles on me.
Dancing
On the highway,
The broken line that led
From you to me.
Well, I’ll be
At my station
All night...
So come on by ,
If you feel like...
Still here,
If you want me.
Look at what
I can do
With empty time.
A lost love
That likes to haunt me:
It’s waiting 'round
To meet
Me when I die.
Death surrounds, protects the living -
Thhis is what you said,
And I agreed
Not to be
Unforgiving,
Just because your soul
Is untimely free...
Because I’m here, if you want me, my love; dancing on the highway
But your sun still burns my eye
Oh, why?
Oh, why?
If you want me;
Listening so close,
From far away.
I memorized
What you told me,
Like a foreigner
On holiday.
I know to smile
At confusion,
And not forget
The soul
That smiles on me.
Dancing
On the highway,
The broken line that led
From you to me.
Well, I’ll be
At my station
All night...
So come on by ,
If you feel like...
Still here,
If you want me.
Look at what
I can do
With empty time.
A lost love
That likes to haunt me:
It’s waiting 'round
To meet
Me when I die.
Death surrounds, protects the living -
Thhis is what you said,
And I agreed
Not to be
Unforgiving,
Just because your soul
Is untimely free...
Because I’m here, if you want me, my love; dancing on the highway
But your sun still burns my eye
Oh, why?
Oh, why?

I always thought he has now become a better person, will his lost love (who may be dead) now accept him ?
"look at what I can do with empty time"
maybe he is referring to commercial success, he wanted to prove he was good enough for someone ? now will they accept him that he thinks he has done enough to gain her acceptance ?
It's so romantic. It brought me to tears the first couple of times I heard it.
Here if you want me, listening so close from far away.
I memorized what you told me, like a foreigner on holiday.
I know to smile at confusion, not forget the soul that smiles on me.
Dancing on the highway, the broken line that led from you to me.
Well, I’ll be at my station all night, so come on by if you feel like.
Still here if you want me. Look at what I can do with empty time.
A lost love that likes to haunt me—it’s waiting around to meet me when I die.
Death surrounds, protects the living—this is what you said and I agreed.
Not to be unforgiving just because your soul’s done time and free.
Cause I’m here if you want me, my love, dancing on the highway.
But your sun still burns my eye.
Oh, why?
Oh, why?
Absolutely beautiful.
