And I don't know how
And I don't know why
Golden days, precious moments

Passed me by
My struggle was only
A wrestle with time

And how I only saw clearly
What I left behind


But it hurts
When you say to me
That I only know myself

That I don't know no one else
Hurtful words
But I don't disagree

You stand removed from me
And only this long slow distance is real


Why, why should I care
I can run, I can crawl
I'm getting there

You roll over slowly
As you drift away
Just a sigh...

And you're on your way

But it hurts

When you say to me
That I only know myself
That I don't know no one else

Hurtful words
But I don't disagree
You stand removed from me

And only this long slow distance is-
Long slow distance is real
