Distant Heart Lyrics

They claimed the sun would never make it back
But I knew it would, yeah, I knew it would
'Cause you asked it to
It seems as it was only yesterday, though a souvenir
'Cause without you here, don't know what to do

And I am sinking down, and I...

Distant heart, you're too far away
A couple thousand miles the oceans claim
I haven't smiled since the day you went away
I know you swear you're fine, but if the waves attack
I'm gonna build a boat to bring you back
Anything just to have you here again

So the mountains curl and the hills are green
When I tell them stories of what you've seen
The Pacific is so glad to have you near
I hope you're comfortable but never settle in
I know that greediness is such an awful sin
But I would pay the price just to catch you sailing in

And I am sinking down, and I...

Distant heart, you're too far away
A couple thousand miles the oceans claim
I haven't smiled since the day you went away
I know you swear you're fine, but if the waves attack
I'm gonna build a boat to bring you back
Anything just to have you here again

Lights in the sea, lights in the sea
I hope you're looking for me, looking for me oh
Lights in the sea, lights in the sea
I hope you're looking for me, looking for me oh

Distant heart, you're too far away
A couple thousand miles the oceans claim
I haven't smiled since the day you went away
I know you swear you're fine, but if the waves attack
I'm gonna build a boat to bring you back
Anything just to have you here again

I know you say you're high above the undertow
But if it takes you in, I want you to know
I'd do anything just to have you here again
Anything just to have you here again
Just to have those blue eyes back
