The sky has lost its 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
To 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.
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.
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.
I’m not ashamed,
That with every breath I take I’m calling your name.
I can’t take the distance.
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.
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.
I’m not ashamed,
That with every breath I take I’m calling your name.
I can’t take the distance.
