Connect

There’s a thousand miles between us

As I feel your breath on my skin

There are so many things I want to say

But I don’t know how to begin

I want to connect with you

Over the oceans and back to the truth

I want to connect with you

I’m standing right beside you

Screaming in my head

I don’t know how to reach you

I shut down instead

When all I want to do is connect with you

The silence is defining

Your heartbeat’s been heard from next door

I knock but no answer

You know I’ve never done this before

I want to connect with you

Over the oceans and back to the truth

I want to connect with you

I’m standing right beside you

Screaming in my head

I don’t know how to reach you

I shut down instead

When all I want to do is connect with you

Distance can be measured by

The pain you feel inside your heart

We could be together

Or be five million miles apart

But that wouldn’t stop me

I want to connect with you

Over the oceans and back to the truth

I want to connect with you

I’m standing right beside you

Screaming in my head

I don’t know how to reach you

I shut down instead

When all I want to do is connect with you
