Prompt / Lyrics
(Orchestra Strings) (Acoustic Guitar slowly takes over) (Verse 1) We’re sittin’ in the same old room tonight Your hand’s right there but it don’t feel right We talk about the weather, the day at work But every word just seems to hurt Verse 2 Your eyes drift past me like I’m not here I hear your voice but it’s not clear There’s a silence hangin’ in the air Loud enough to say we’re barely there Chorus We’re so close but far apart Two shadows missin’ the same heart Side by side, worlds away Love ain’t gone, it just won’t stay We’re holdin’ on, but losin’ ground No bridge left that won’t break down So close but far apart Verse 3 I remember when you’d lean my way Every touch had somethin’ to say Now the nights feel wide and cold Like a story half been told [Instrumental] Pre-Chorus I don’t know where the line was crossed Or when we started countin’ loss Chorus We’re so close but far apart Two ghosts sleepin’ in the dark Same bed, different dreams Ain’t as simple as it seems We’re reachin’ out, still fallin’ short Love’s a sail with no support So close but far apart Bridge If love’s an ocean, we’re standin’ still Starin’ out past our own free will No wind to turn us back around Just driftin’ where we can’t be found Chorus (soft, then lift) We’re so close but far apart Tryin’ hard, still missin’ heart Every word, every sigh Feels like one last alibi Outro I’m right here, you’re not far Still feels like miles between our hearts So close… but far apart
