The sky has lost it´s 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
As I 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 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
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 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
´Cause 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
That with every breath I take I´m calling 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
