there's a space between us lyrics

Every time I've needed you
You've been there for me
But now I feel a boundary has been drawn

I can see from all you do
That you still care for me
I know the feelin' hasn't gone

But there's a space between us
A place that I can't go
Unless you step across and meet me halfway

We've been friends for much too long
And the feelin's much too strong to let it go astray
Reach out and make the space between us go away

I know a little bit of space between two friends
Can sometimes do them good
But once in a while we need to touch
The way that people should

Love can tie you down, I know
'Cause you know I've been there
But I've been workin' on a way to love
And still be free to care

You love your lady
And I know just what you're thinkin'
Was a time I used to be just where you are

But I've since found my freedom
And I've finally let it sink in
The distance very isn't very far

There's a space between us
A place that I can't go
Unless you step across and meet me halfway

We've been friends for much too long
And the feeling's much too strong to let it go astray
Reach out and make the space between us go away

I want you to reach out and make the space between us go away
I want you to reach out and make the space between us go away
I want you to reach out, I know that you can hear me
Come on and reach out, I need to feel you near me

I want you to reach out and make the space between us go away
I want you to reach out and make the space between us go away
Come on and reach out and make the space between us go away
Come on and reach out and make the space between us go away
