The Distance, 12/8/10

How can I hold your hand
When you're so far away
Protect you, through your bad nights
with this distance that separates us
The cold comfort of the telephone
cannot make up for the warmth of another
beside you
The distance between us
Not just of space and years
Made of hurt and fear
and all the things that needle the soul
How can I kiss your lips
When you're so very far away
