The sky has lost its color
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
each one brings me closer to
the time you're comin' back
I can't take the distance
I can't the miles
I can't take the time til 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 your close to me
But it ain't close enough
Not nearly close enough
I can't take the distance
I can't the miles
I can't take the time til 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'd brave fire and I'd brave rain
To be by your side I'd do anything
I can't take the distance
I will go the distance
I will go the miles
That's how much you mean to me
Cuz I can't take the distance
I can't take these miles
I can't take the time until I next see you smile
I can't take the distance
And I'm not ashamed
With every breath I take I'm callin' your name
I can't take the distance
The Distance...
I can't take the distance anymore
The Distance...
The Distance...

It's harder to remember
the longer you're away
can i find solace?
there's only one you, only one you...
