James Oliver The Distance Lyrics

The Distance Lyrics

The distance

(oliver james)



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



I crawl up in the corner

To watch the
minutes pass

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 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



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



(chorus)

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’d breathe fire and I’d be free

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



(chorus)

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
