Two steps front and one foot back
All I need to see if we're a match
I stepped away to desert sun
A land that won't forgive the old or young
Absence makes the heart grow fond
I needed time to see if she'd hold bond
All along the phone calls were means to an end
Only cause I need you, a voice that could mend
Reaching to contain you in this photograph
It might be in this distance, you're closer than that
You're closer than that
You're closer than that
I can see the heat, but can't feel my feet
I think I'll walk it off to know I'm real
Reactions change in times of stress
Will I rise or will I have to steal
It's all on us, as we hold love
And what you do might counter what's been done
All along the phone calls were means to an end
Only cause I need you, a voice that could mend
Reaching to contain you in this photograph
It might be in this distance, you're closer than that
I want you closer than that
We're on the same path
I'm reaching to touch you
Cause it's all that we have
I want you closer than that
We're on the same path
I'm reaching to touch you
Cause it's all that we have
You're closer than that
We're on the same path
I'm reaching to touch you
Cause it's all that we have
You're closer than that
I want you closer than that
I want you closer than that
I want you closer than that
I need you closer than that
I want you closer than that...
