Distance
Bridging the Silence: Longing and Love in 'Distance' by Nick Saenz
Lyrics
So what I need you
Expressing a personal requirement for someone.
I need you here
Reiterating the need for the person to be present.
Need you here
Emphasizing the desire for the person to be close.
The way you text me everything's alright
Feeling reassured when receiving messages from the person.
Can't read in between your lines (Between your lines)
Unable to understand the implicit meaning in the person's messages.
Between your lines (Lines)
Highlighting the challenge of deciphering the person's intentions.
Facetime is a waste of my time
Expressing dissatisfaction with virtual communication through FaceTime.
You're out of sight, and I'm going out my mind
Feeling distressed and restless when the person is physically distant.
So baby tell me
Requesting the person to communicate openly.
Tell me, baby tell me now
Emphasizing the urgency of wanting to know the truth.
Can you feel all this distance between us
Acknowledging the emotional impact of the physical separation.
Tearing me apart
Describing the emotional pain caused by the distance.
So what I want to hear your whispers
Expressing a desire to hear the person's intimate thoughts.
Yeah I just want to feel your skin
Craving physical closeness and contact with the person.
Love at arm's length I can't
Feeling uncomfortable with emotional intimacy without physical proximity.
Let you leave again
Resisting the idea of letting the person go again.
Can you feel all this distance between us
Reiterating the emotional impact of the physical distance.
Tearing me apart
Expressing the continued emotional pain caused by the separation.
So what I want to hear your whispers
Repeating the desire to hear the person's intimate thoughts.
Yeah I just want to feel your skin
Reiterating the longing for physical closeness and touch.
Love at arm's length I can't
Expressing discomfort with emotional intimacy without physical presence.
Let you leave again
Stating the reluctance to let the person leave again.
So what I need you
Reiterating the personal need for the person to be present.
I need you here
Expressing the persistent desire for the person to be close.
Need you here
Reiterating the ongoing need for the person to be present.
