so far away lyrics

Each night I feel the distance that has grown between us
Open up as lonely as the space between the stars
I wish that I could find a way
To smash my fist right through these walls
Of ugliness and emptiness
And gently touch your face

But every time that I touch you
You feel so far away
And every time that you need me
I feel so far away

As you lay silently beside me choking back your tears
I wonder if you recognize, that silence now defines us
Desperately I try to fight this overwhelming sense
That I may never find the strength to change
How hopeless we've become

But every time that I touch you
You feel so far away
And every time that you need me
I feel so far away
I feel so far away
I feel so far, far away

We need to find a way to break this silence
We need to find a way to break this silence
We need to find a way to break this silence that's between us
So I scream your name, I scream your name
I scream your name, I scream your name

But every time that I touch you
You feel so far away
And every time that you need me
You feel so far away
And every time that you reach out
You feel me pull away, yeah
And every time that I touch you, I touch you, I touch you
You feel so far away
