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 a corner As I watch the minutes pass Each one brings me closer to The time when you'll be back You're coming back
Chorus 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 seeing your name I can barave a hurricane and still be standing tall when all the dust has settled down But 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 (2x)
