Distance Songtext
von John Craigie

I could lose you to the loneliness
Vast and infinite
To the phones that blink and blink and some nights don′t blink
To your new found freedom
The ever changing seasons
And all the options falling at your feet
I could lose you to your dreams
Possible now they seem
That somehow don't fit along my path
But darling please don′t let me lose you
To the distance


I could lose you to the drugs
All the best ones
Where you would no longer crave my embrace
I could lose you to our paranoia
The deep and heavy traumas
And all the crazy thoughts that we might think
I could lose you to another man
Who could be around more than I can
Show up and simply hold his stance
But darling please don't let me lose you
To the distance

I could lose you to the sea
Salty and free
With nothing but the stars above to glisten
I could lose you to the roaring crowd
The tiny little mountain town
Or the desert where all we do is listen
To the mysteries of the heart
Jumping back and forth
To all of these I would understand
But darling please don't let me lose you
To the distance
But darling please don′t let me lose you
To the distance
