Distance
Copyright (c)2001 Raquel LungBy Sweet Girl
I can always feel your smile-whenever you call
The love flows through the line-with a silent stall.
Why the silence?-Why is it here?
Can we block it out-Throw away the fear?
God,it hurts-when I hear your voice
But I continue to listen-I made the choice.
The Distance slaps me-right in the face
It steals your love-imprisons your embrace.
How long can you stay-when the touch is so far?
How long can I wish-on that same distant star?
The absence tears-the heart so deep
Exactly,how much-of you can I keep?
Opportunities can knock-everyday
How long can you send-them all away?
Without breaking down-and giving in
Should we forfeit now?-Is there a chance to win?
The game is turning-who's turn now?
There's a way to conquer-and win, somehow.
Will we ever know?-Through all the cofusion?
Is this Love for real?-Or just an Illusion?
The Distance creeps-all through the night
I can feel it near-tho' out of sight.
I want to reach for you-reach back for me
The Distance is thick-I can't even see.
How much longer-til we reach that star?
Are we any closer?Are we still too far?
Please reassure me-just make me smile
Just let me keep you-while lost in the Mile.
