Long Distance
It gets better all the time when you’re on my mind
You’re a heavenly joy intoxicating my insides worried about yourself but you tell me, “I’m fine”.
Your voice beckons me to go out there and discover the world to get to you
But how do you expect me to be willing when there’s a barrier between us that is too invulnerable to get through?
We call that barrier, “Long Distance”.
What’s the next step to reach the following sequence?
All it takes to reach you is a phone call away
Even though I’m not convinced that there is another way
No matter how much we argue you don’t know much I longed for your embrace
There weren’t a better moment in the world than right now I wouldn’t give to see your face
Be graceful and carry on; the last time we met your movements and sex appeal resembles one of a swan’s
Just forget about the childish dreams we once had and don’t press on
Nobody knows where fate will take us
We can only manipulate the future by controlling what kind of people we will take along with us
Neither of us had an idea or a clue
A hint on how much things we’re going to risk and the farther we keep trying we’re both going to lose
Regret nothing for we once wanted it in the first place
It was a clueless mutual decision, stepping into this; we both didn’t know what was at sake
Maturity has its utmost advantages for I’m grown and won’t let you take the blame
You turn your back on me, feeling the bitter shame
Realization shun over me because it becomes clear, I wouldn’t do this
But am I in the wrong for not coming up with the excuses?
Long distance takes its toll for the unwilling meanwhile the willing suffer
Communication never been enough to tell if the opposing person been faithful with one another
I lo—I really like you, the gimmick of love is an illusion that empowers the heart at its weakest
Don’t mistake my kindness for weakness
Don’t get me wrong I cared for you, even more so we strengthen our bond
However, the more we stay apart from different places meeting new faces, our connection is most likely not going to last very long
This is becoming a broad
This is becoming a broad subject, as I hear there are people with online relationships who have neve once had in person meetings. That is way beyond my understanding I think
