Silence & Distance Been here for so long On the morrow I'll dare Silent and distant Reaching out, unaware Stealing the whispers From my deepest request And you watch me Waiting for something new My hands, as empty As my body and soul Could keep pretending But in the heart I'd be gone... Still stare at my face But lost seem your eyes Keep hold of the sails Against the blue sky Ooh, I'm intending A way back to the sea This emptiness burns inside And leads on for endless miles Don't let me go Away across the sea, It may be much more wide Than what it seems to be Ooh, I'm still searching The way back to be freed The loneliness hangs around us However we can't see Now let me go Away across the sea, The waves can't be as high As they pretend to be And now I know In my heart, I won't forget The sails against the blue sky That taught me how to live ... with no sorrow And tomorrow we'll share Silence and distance 'till our faults are repaired You'll be the mistress Who I'll never forget.
