The Great Distance Lyrics

As I walk alone
I search for my way
I can't seem to find
Those things I should say
What words can I say

We drift through the years
As the pendulum sways
A long lonely wait
As we count off the days
We're counting the days

I know I can't change
The things that I've done
We trade in our past
For a sunrise to come
A sunrise will come

(chorus)

We never speak of the tears that we hide
Long for the days I'm still by your side
Across the great distance we ride

As we're making our way across time and space
The memory seems like a far away place
Through distance I carry on
We will carry on

(verse 2)

We push through our lives
As we carry the weight
We've chosen our path
Through the burden of fate
Or is it too late

Alone with my thoughts
I'm longing for when
You'll stand before me
And I'll see you again
Will I see you again

Like sand on the shore
I'm watching the waves
Awaiting the tide
To wash me away
Wash me away

Nothing can change my mind I'm here until the end
I still hear your voice through it all

Something's inside each one of us we can't pretend
Together we can never fall

We measure time's illusion, fade into the sun
Across the distance far and wide

But through all we survive

(chorus)
