The Distance Lyrics

The Distance lyrics

the sky has lost its color 



 the sun has turned to grey 



 at least thats how it feels to me 



 whenever you're away 



 



 i crawl up in a corner 



 as i watch the minutes pass 



 each one brings me closer to 



 the time when you'll be back 



 you're comin 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 seeing your name 



 



 but i can't breathe 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 



 



 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 seeing your name 



 



 but i can't breathe a hurricane and 



 still be standing tall 



 when all the dust has settled down 



 



 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 seeing your name 



 and i can't take the distance 



 the distance
