Distance

Distance by Britt Connors
You had me caught... hook, line, and sinker
But I'm a dreamer... and you, you are a thinker
That gossamer thread that held us together
Through meteor storms, it couldn't brave the weather
From Melbourne to New York, I pushed to keep your pace
Two hemispheres, an Equator line... to realize it's not a race
(Chorus)
It takes two points to make a distance[1]
And two points to make a line
Two hearts to make it worth the distance
And one of those hearts can't be mine
Like stars in a constellation, your eyes can trace the lines
Fill between the gaps, creating picture-perfect zodiac signs
So in my little head, I played connect-the-dots between you and me
But no amount of squinting made me connect them picture-perfectly
Squinting can bring perspective, like stepping back away
But my back's against the wall, and my eyes can't bear the strain
(Chorus)
It takes two points to make a distance
And two points to make a line
Two hearts to make it worth the distance
And one of those hearts can't be mine... can't be mine
(Bridge)
These parallel paths - they're gonna do me in
The space between's so wide
I guess I'd rather be alone
Than be lonely by your side
(Chorus)
It takes two points to make a distance
Two points to make a line
Two hearts to make it worth the distance
And one of those hearts ain't gonna be mine…
