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 can’t take the distance, I can’t take the miles
I can’t take the time till 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 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’d brave fire and I’d brave rain
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
Dear Irma,
we don’t have much time to spend lately
and now the ocean do us apart
again
and even so
we’re still here…
for you…
you’re still part of us
we will always love you
even ocean do us apart
:-*
(Lyric: Oliver James – The Distance)
