The shadows start to fall;
Break the silence, hold me close,
Tell me what’s underneath it all.
'Cause you’re keeping me awake,
And I lie here wishing you could
Find the word you wanna say.
The timing wasn’t right,
But there’s no point in pretending
That our stars did not align--
Or should I say collide?
I know that I can keep you near!
And, although you have to leave me here…
You always have the stars above!
Ya know it! Ya know it!
Distance cannot change this love!
Ya know it! Ya know it!
But, baby, it’s a long way!
It’s a long way home!
Baby, it’s a long way!
It’s a long way home!
You made up your mind.
Maybe all of this attention
Is just for being kind…
So, I won’t overthink.
It’s taking you too long to see:
I’m already good enough for me.
You always have the stars above!
Ya know it! Ya know it!
Distance cannot change this love!
Ya know it! Ya know it!
But, baby, it’s a long way!
It’s a long way home!
Baby, it’s a long way!
It’s a long way home!
Baby, it’s a long way!
It’s a long way home!
Baby, it’s a long way!
It’s a long way home!
Another moment passin' us by,
And the trees are touchin' the sky--
Or so it looks from where we lie!
You always have the stars above!
Ya know it! Ya know it!
Distance cannot change this love!
Ya know it! Ya know it!
But, baby, it’s a long way!
It’s a long way home!
Baby, it’s a long way!
It’s a long way home!
Baby, it’s a long way!
It’s a long way home!
Baby, it’s a long way!
It’s a long way home!
Baby, it’s a long way!
It’s a long way home!
