Pain Of Salvation - Through the Distance lyrics

When I was a child I saw her every day I never dared to touch her, scared to break the spell And now the years have pa**ed us by And all that could have been is left behind 'Cause I loved her Safe from a distance Every day a million people flow the street Their faces blank They talk but do not ever meet They all have important things to do They all have things to watch on TV 'Cause they all watch life Safe from a distance They all touch love Safe from a distance But I want it And I need it Come and touch me Come and reach me Through the distance 'Cause we all live life Safe from a distance But my heart will bleed Through all this distance And my voice will cry All through the distance
