I was close, to the end of my rope
And I know that might be hard to believe
Considering everything I've been feeling lately
You should know, the thought of falling in love
Wasn't close to what I wanted at all
But your eyes shined in that red light
And I closed the door of my old life
I wish we could spend the night
Underneath the moonlight
And we could talk on the Fire Escape
As we fight the sight of daybreak
You're just so, you're just so far away
You're just so, you're just so far away
There were holes in the palms of my hands
Burned from all the weight that I couldn't grasp
But you came the first day and I was starting to feel safe
There were long drives with your hand inside mine
And you know that I hate the thought of the separation of fingertips but
Sometimes we fall for someone where goodbyes come with the sun
I wish we could spend the night underneath the moonlight
And we could drift out to sea as we explore each others bodies
You're just so, you're just so far away
You're just so, you're just so far away
You're just so, you're just so far away
You're just so, you're just so far away
And I saw your eyes swell, and I thought to myself
What have we done? I’m falling in love
What have we done? But the morning will come
And I saw your eyes swell, and I thought to myself
What have we done? I’m falling in love
What have we done? But the morning will come
And I know this is all so new, but I will go as slow as you need me to
Because this love is not always (what have we done?)
I could show you the way
You're just so, you're just so far away
You're just so, you're just so far away
You're just so, you're just so far away
You're just so, you're just so far away!
So, as you spend the night with an empty bedside
You will drift off to sleep and I will wait for you to return to me
