lyrics

This distance
Is all that I can stand
I'll keep my heart in my hand
Until we meet again

I promised you
I will see you again
No matter what the distance
Or where you choose to lay your head

You will always be my friend

Remember the days we used to say
We would always remain
But now you're gone
And my life feels so empty
Now I'm running on empty
And so it seems
My lack of sleep
Is starting to catch up with me

And I still keep thinking back to the days we spent by the ocean
And the miles we walked around this town
But if I was gone tomorrow, would you even notice?
If I screamed would it make a sound, or would you choose to hear it?
And it's these thoughts that still linger in the back of my mind
Of those I've lost, by fate or by spite
And if these thoughts are shared
Or only mine

Come back to me

Come back to me
The weight you left when you went a stray
Crushed my chest, now I can't breathe
Because you walked away with the best in me
This distance
Is more than I can stand
I'll keep my heart in my hand
Until we meet again
