Hold me tight, hold me right But I can't get to comfortable there yet Temporary love, temporary treasure trove Of all I'd ever want But for now I'll pretend not to care Tell me you love me, like a good friend would or should I think about it all the time Questioning your motives Wondering if I am crossing any boundary lines So I keep my distance If I can help it, but you're making it hard To keep my distance In this instance it'll be my greatest scar I will love you from afar Can we address the elephant in the room It's teetering on a wire Feebling and fumbling fraught with the ficklest of desire So I keep my distance If I can help it, but you're making it hard To keep my distance In this instance it'll be my greatest scar I will love you from afar Don't know how much longer I can go on like this Don't know how much will power I've got to, got to, got to Resist So I keep my distance If I can help it, but you're making it hard To keep my distance In this instance it'll be my greatest scar I will love you from afar I will love you I will love you
