There's a Space Between Us

Every time I've needed you

You've been there for me

But now I feel a boundary has been drawn

I can see from all you do

That you still care for me

I know the feeling hasn't gone

But there's a space between

A place that I can't go

Unless you step across and meet me halfway

We've been friends for much too long

And the feeling's much too strong to let it go astray

Reach out and make the space between us go away

I know a little bit of space between two friends

Can sometimes do them good

But once in a while we need to touch

The way that people should

Love can tie you down, I know

'Cause you know I've been there

But I've been working on a way to love

And still be free to care

You love your lady

And I know just what you're thinking

Was a time I used to be just where you are

But I've since found my freedom

And I've finally let it sink in

The distance really isn't very far

There's a space between us

A place that I can't go

Unless you step across and meet me halfway

We've been friends for much too long

And the feeling's much too strong to let it go astray

Reach out and make the space between us go away

Reach out, I know that you can hear me

Reach out, I need to feel you near me
