The Distance

Lyrics

[Verse 1] The sky has lost its color The sun has turned to gray At least that's how it feels to me Whenever you're away [Verse 2] I crawl up in the corner To watch the minutes pass (One second, one minute, one hour) Each one brings me closer to The time you're coming back [Chorus] I can't take the distance I can't take the miles I can't take the time 'til I next see you smile I can't take the distance I'm not ashamed That with every breath I take, I'm calling your name But I can't take the distance [Verse 3] I still believe my feelings But sometimes I feel too much I make believe you're close to me It ain't close enough Not nearly close enough [Chorus] I can't take the distance I can't take the miles I can't take the time 'til I next see you smile I can't take the distance I'm not ashamed That with every breath I take, I'm calling your name But I can't take the distance [Post-Chorus] I'd brave fire and I'd brave rain To be by your side, I'd do anything I can't take the distance [Instrumental Break] [Bridge] I will go the distance I will go the miles That's how much you mean to me [Chorus] 'Cause I can't take the distance I can't take these miles I can't take the time 'til I next see you smile I can't take the distance I'm not ashamed That with every breath I take, I'm calling your name I can't take the distance [Outro] (It's hard to remember) (As long as you're away) (But then I find solace) (There's only one, only one) (It's hard to remember) (As long as you're away) (But then I find solace) I can't take the distance anymore (There's only one, only one) (It's hard to remember) (As long as you're away) (But then I find solace) (There's only one, only one) (It's hard to remember) The distance (As long as you're away) (But then I find solace) (There's only one, only one) (It's hard to remember)
