the time we spend away from each other
is when we become truly close
so many days have passed
that i have not been able to be with you
the distance between us is so real
you are more real to me than everything that is close
the distance between us is killing me
you are the end of all my roads
you are the beginning of every street
imagination shatters all hope
because it makes me feel so alone
why are you always so far
yet i see you like a burning star
distance is a mysterious thing
it is the reason for which i sing
but it is also the price i pay
for having these words to say
