Distance

I could lose you to the loneliness Vast and infinite To the phones that blink and blink and some nights don't blink To your new found freedom The ever changing seasons And all the options falling at your feet I could lose you to your dreams Possible now they seem That somehow don't fit along my path But darling please don't let me lose you To the distance I could lose you to the drugs All the best ones Where you would no longer crave my embrace I could lose you to our paranoia The deep and heavy traumas And all the crazy thoughts that we might think I could lose you to another man Who could be around more than I can Show up and simply hold his stance But darling please don't let me lose you To the distance I could lose you to the sea Salty and free With nothing but the stars above to glisten I could lose you to the roaring crowd The tiny little mountain town Or the desert where all we do is listen To the mysteries of the heart Jumping back and forth To all of these I would understand But darling please don't let me lose you To the distance But darling please don't let me lose you To the distance
