Each night I feel the distance that has grown between us Open up as lonely as the space between the stars I wish that I could find a way To smash my fist right through these walls Of ugliness and emptiness And gently touch your face But every time that I touch you You feel so far away And every time that you need me I feel so far away As you lie silently beside me choking back your tears I wonder if you recognize That silence now defines us Desperately I try to fight this overwhelming sense That I may never find The strength to change How hopeless we've become We need to find a way to break this silence We need to find a way to break this silence that's between us So I scream your name But every time that I touch you You feel so far away And every time that you need me I feel so far away And every time that you reach out You feel me pull away And every time that I touch you, I touch you, I touch you You feel so far away
