"Distance"

"Hey love, time to get up. I think you’ve been sleeping too long. My day started when you were still yawning. One room just ain’t enough when it’s two folks trying to get along but it’s hard to leave you alone."

"Oh love is always better when we take time to get back to who we are when we are apart. Distance makes the heart grow"

"Even when I’m lonely, I’m happy knowing that your love is never far. When we are apart distance makes the heart grow. It makes the leaves on the trees fall. It makes the hours in the day long. Makes me wanna clear my head, find a little cafe and write the words to a song and I know that I’m still free. Be anywhere that I wanna be. Maybe get dressed up, wear something real pretty that you ain’t never seen."

"When you love it makes it hard. When you trust it makes it hard. When you call it makes it hard. We’re alone when we’re apart. In the middle of a fight. Walk away to make it right. Where we go, we’re never far. In the light or in the dark. On a plane up in the stars. In a movie or at the bar. Home alone or out to tea. Look to your heart and think of me. I wanna love you. Don’t wanna try to change the pace of your life."

"We get together we make it good. We get together."

"Hey love time to get up. I think you’ve been sleeping too long. My day started when you were still yawning."
