all day long I feel your distance
fooling ourselves into thinking we're fine
stressed but hiding behind small smiles
keep the tv on keep the conversation flowing
don't let anyone know how you really feel
all day long I felt your distance
only at night do we share our truths
the distance closes and words spill out
you understand why I have to reveal it
I understand why you share your worries
everything's different after dark
through the distance I reach out to grab you
you return with a listening heart
when I feel crazy you help me feel calmer
thanks for letting me trust you with my feelings
all day long I felt your distance
but tonight we speak as close as ever
