Think of all your lovers and your friends
And how your life would be
If I was the only one left
The consequence, the aftermath
The sorry state that I had to deal with
Till I could see you again
Cause I'm lost inside of this one thing
can't control, can't control
It's your love, it's your grace
It's the smile on your face
It's the basic fact that I will
If it's really the distance
I'm not sure if it's time on my mind,
or the patience that I've had
Swearing out the beating in my chest,
I wish that you would do the same for me
Cause I'm lost inside of this one thing
can't control, can't control
It's your love, it's your grace, it's
The smile on your face, it's
The ba sic fact that I will never, know
If it's really the distance
But I'd go the distance to get to you
The mountains would get taller,
the rivers would overflow
The streets would fill with traffic,
in summer there'd be snow
And even if it meant that I
Every solitary thing that I owned
Cause I'm lost inside of this one
thing that I can't control
Can't control, I can't control
It's a love, it's a grace
The smile on your face, it's
The piece of black that I will
This one thing that I can't control
Can't control, can't control
It's your love, it's your grace, it's
The smile on your face, it's
The ba sic fact that I will never, know
If it's really the distance
If it's really the distance
