The Distance Lyrics

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 when you'll be back 
You're coming 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 saying your name 
I can brave 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
