The sky has lost it's colour
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
One second, one minute, one hour
Each one brings me closer to
The time you're comin' back

I can't take the distance, I can't take the miles
I can't take the time till I next see you smile
I can't take the distance and I'm not ashamed
That with every breath, I take I'm callin' your name
But 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

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 and I'm not ashamed
That with every breath I take I'm callin' your name

I brave fire and I brave rain
To be by your side I'd do anythin'
I can't take the distance

I will go the distance, I will go the miles
That's how much you mean to me
'Cause I can't take the distance, I can't take these miles
I can't take the time till I next see you smile
I can't take the distance and I'm not ashamed
That with every breath I take I'm callin' your name

I can't take the distance
It's hard to remember as long as you're away
When I find solace there's only one way
It's hard to remember as long as you're away
When I find solace there's only one way
It's hard to remember as long as you're away
When I find solace there's only one way
It's hard to remember as long as you're away
When I find solace there's only one way
