My Lost Cause

Distance From You
I'm wearing a hole through this carpeted floor as I pace back and forth from the chair to the door The keys in my hand and the phone to my ear I don't know where you're at, I just know you're not here with me This town has never felt near this cold and the California sun might do me some good But it's 2,186 miles till I leave you behind with your counterfeit smiles I just figured out I'm not falling in love, but apart Two dozen rozes and too many tears have been wasted on feelings never made clear I can't hold together while busting apart at the seams This time I spent wasted alone with you These feelings mistaken These games you've been playing You're wearing my patience I'm wearing frustration This distance from you is bringing me closer to home And I never wanted any more than I gave you And I never told you anything that wasn't true I said I'm sorry, but it's the only way to get you off my mind (to get you off my mind) I said I'm sorry, but wounds like these only heal with time 2,186 miles till I leave you behind with your counterfeit smiles I just figured out I'm not falling in love, but apart Two dozen rozes and too many tears have been wasted on feelings never made clear I can't hold together while busting apart at the seams Aus Songtexte Mania
