The distance is unforgiving
You used to tell me this
I was stubborn and wouldn’t listen
The thought of losing you was something I couldn’t live with
I couldn’t see us ending
Just the thought would leave me numb
All I saw was us ending
Up, in love together
Looking back at our journey
All of the ups and down
Those nights filled with a lonely, side of the bed
And no dinners for two
You thinking of me
Me thinking of you
Memories of sacrifices
We made to share a life with
The one we knew we loved
Even if it was rough
If ever I had doubt
I was reminded of this
The day you stole my heart
The night you’d kissed my lips
The feeling that took over, the second you would leave
The tears that filled your eyes
The ones that streamed my cheek
Your tears only grew stronger as the months flew by
Even with all the practice
Never good at saying goodbye
It got to the point we wouldn’t bother to say it
Just pretended we were okay with
The frequent flyer miles
Late night phone dials
The ones we claimed we missed
Silence, like words don’t exist
Knowing it could end
Faster than it began
Love tries it’s hardest
But the distance wins again
