Distance From You

I'm wearing a hole through this carpeted floor as I pace back and forth from the chair to the door
The keys in my hand and the phone to my ear
I don't know where you're at, I just know you're not here with me
This town has never felt near this cold and the California sun might do me some good

But it's 2,186 miles till I leave you behind with your counterfeit smiles
I just figured out I'm not falling in love, but apart
Two dozen rozes and too many tears have been wasted on feelings never made clear
I can't hold together while busting apart at the seams

This time I spent wasted alone with you
These feelings mistaken
These games you've been playing
You're wearing my patience
I'm wearing frustration

This distance from you is bringing me closer to home

And I never wanted any more
than I gave you
And I never told you anything
that wasn't true

I said I'm sorry, but it's the only way to get you off my mind (to get you off my mind)
I said I'm sorry, but wounds like these only heal with time

2,186 miles till I leave you behind with your counterfeit smiles
I just figured out I'm not falling in love, but apart
Two dozen rozes and too many tears have been wasted on feelings never made clear
I can't hold together while busting apart at the seams
