The Distance Between Us
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.
You take my breath away
And yet you're all I'm breathing for
I always want that little bit more of what you do
And I still feel today
The way I felt the first time we kissed
You made me live, not simply exist
Broke like a clear view out of the mist
I'd known
You turned my life to up from down
Taken me from lost to found
Raised me up and now I see
How high we are
And every night before I sleep
I hope and pray you're mine to keep
It's all I can do to thank my lucky stars
Chorus:
The distance between us
'Cos close is never close enough
And there's a world beyond your touch
I want to climb inside of you
And see your heart beat
Your heart beat
So now and here we are
Within a land that we're making our own
I can't believe how devotion has grown
And still it grows
We're not the first to fall so far
Won't be the last to give our hearts
But now it's me and now it's you
We own this love
Sounding out the way I feel
Reminds me that this dream is real
All that I can do is thank my lucky stars
Chorus
I've never felt like this before
Never felt this way before
Can't get close enough
Or stop myself from wanting more
Chorus (x2)
