The sky has lost its color
The sun has turned to gray
At least thats how it feels to me
Whenever youre away
I crawl up in the corner
To watch the minutes pass
Each one brings me closer to
The time youre coming back
(chorus)
I cant take the distance
I cant take the miles
I cant take the time until I next see you smile
I cant take the distance
And Im not ashamed
That with every breath I take Im calling your name
I cant take the distance
I still believe my feelings
But sometimes I feel too much
I make believe youre close to me
But it aint close enough
Not nearly close enough
(chorus)
I cant take the distance
I cant take the miles
I cant take the time until I next see you smile
I cant take the distance
And Im not ashamed
That with every breath I take Im calling your name
Id breathe fire and Id be free
To be by your side, Id do anything
I cant take the distance
I will go the distance
I will go the miles
Thats how much you mean to me
(chorus)
I cant take the distance
I cant take these miles
I cant take the time until I next see you smile
I cant take the distance
And Im not ashamed
That with every breath I take Im calling your name
I cant take the distance
