The Space Between Us
Bridging Hearts: Shawn McDonald's Melodic Call to Close the Divide
Lyrics
I'm still up, and it's 3 in the morning
I am still awake at 3 in the morning
I try to sleep but my mind keeps going
Despite trying, I can't sleep as my mind is restless
Am I awake cause you're trying to speak to me
Wondering if I'm awake because you're trying to communicate with me
Lying here with my ears wide open
Lying in bed with ears open, seeking connection
Can you fix what I know I have broken
Acknowledging the need to mend what I know I've damaged
There's a hole in my heart where I need you to be
Feeling an emptiness in my heart, longing for your presence
But I'm right here, and you're right there
Physically present but emotionally distant
Will you take this wall I built and tear it down
Inviting the idea of breaking down the emotional barriers
And do what you always do
Asking for a transformative action
Making the old so new
Bringing renewal to old situations
Taking away the space between us
Desiring to eliminate the emotional distance
Filling it up with more of you
Filling the gap with more of your presence
You do what you always do
Acknowledging the consistent nature of your actions
Cause you're my rescue
You are my rescuer
Taking away the space between us
Removing the emotional distance between us
Taking away the space between me and you
Expressing the desire to be close to you
Never really meant to be so distant
Admitting unintended emotional distance
Should have known that it made no difference
Realizing that the distance didn't matter
You were holding my hand when I walked away
Regretting walking away despite your support
And you were there in the middle of the night
Recalling your presence in challenging times
You were there when I lost my sight
You were there during moments of crisis
And you're still holding me today
Grateful for your continuous support
And do what you always do
Reiterating the request for transformative action
Making the old so new
Bringing freshness to familiar situations
Taking away the space between us
Expressing the desire to eliminate emotional distance
Filling it up with more of you
Filling the gap with more of your presence
You do what you always do
Acknowledging the consistent nature of your actions
Cause you're my rescue
You are my rescuer
Taking away the space between us
Removing the emotional distance between us
Taking away the space between me and you
Expressing the desire to be close to you
