Lyrics
Dancing the Distance
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Do you remember me? Turn back the years and see. Dance the
distance. Dance it if you can.
For as you'd always say, "Forever's just a day. Dance the
distance. Dance it if you can."
Chorus:
And far beyond the song, I've been searchin' for too long. I
can't dance the distance by myself,
And the sand where we would meet would vanish from my feet. I
can't dance the distance by myself.
If you should happen by, like a soft wind on my mind, dance the
distance, dance it if you can.
You can look for me where the road turns to the sea. Dance the
distance. Dance it by yourself.
(Chorus)
Do you remember me? Turn back the years and see. Dance the
distance. Dance it if you can.
For as you'd always say, "Forever's just a day. Let's dance
the distance. Dance it while we can."
Let's dance the distance. Dance it while we can. (Repeat and
fade)
