The Distance Between Us

(Keith Foti)
2005-01-31
This song touches on the isolation one can bring on when running away from themselves, the romantic ideas and degradation that go along with drug addiction and the broken promises our actions have.
The Distance Between Us


Ten thousand tears
Ten thousand miles
It been forever since
I ve seen your smile
The shades are drawn
Still my static it plays
I wish I could remember
All the words my love
I never could say

The further you run
Closer the night
I know its too late
But baby I miss you sometimes

I lay down on these withered springs
Let the sweat stained sheets cover my skin
With the autumn burn in my veins
So I can t remember what it was that we dreamed
I scratch and I turn
I fix the hours till dawn
I didn t know this nightmare
Would carry on this long

The further you run
Closer the night
I know its too late
But baby I miss you sometimes


I tried to touch the marmalade prize
But I fell before I could rise
Just one more taste just one last dance so I can
Return to your sweet tenderness


The further you run
Closer the night
I know it s too late
But baby I miss you sometimes

Oh
