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 you're coming back I can't take the distance I can't take the miles I can't take the time until I next see you smile I can't take the distance And I'm not ashamed That with every breath I take I'm calling your name But I can't take the distance I still believe my 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 I can't take the distance I can't take the miles I can't take the time until I next see you smile I can't take the distance And I'm not ashamed That with every breath I take I'm calling your name I brave fire and I brave rain To be by your side I'd do anything I can't take the distance I will go the distance I will go the miles That's how much you mean to me 'Cause I can't take the distance I can't take these miles I can't take the time until I next see you smile I can't take the distance And I'm not ashamed That with every breath I take I'm calling your name I can't take the distance It's hard to remember As long as you're away When I find solace There's only one way
