The Distance

The sky has lost it's color

The sun has turned to grey

At least that's how it feels to me

Whenever you're away



I crawl up in the corner

As I watch the minutes pass

Each one brings me closer to

The time when you'll be back

You're coming back



I can't take the distance

I can't take the miles

I can't take the time

Until the next time I see you smile

I can't take the distance

And I'm not ashamed

That I can't take a breath without saying your name

I can brave a hurricane

And still be standing tall when all the dust has settled down

But I can't take the distance



I still believe in feelings

But sometimes I feel too much

I make believe you're close to me

But it ain't close enough

Not nearly close enough
