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
(chorus) 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
(chorus)
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
