Distance Lyrics by D. Ciano

Falling Forward

2015

[Voicemail]
Hey, I was just calling to check up on you
And uhmm, just see how things were going
I guess just give me a call back around 6 or so
I just uhmm, honestly babe, like I wish we were at a different place
I wish we could talk about our issues and just be on better terms
So… just give me a call back around 6

[Intro: D. Ciano]
While I’m out here dreaming, wish I was perfect
Wish I was everything you needed, cause you deserved it
Yea… you were worth it so selfless, unselfish, hard working
So deserving of more than anything I could purchase
Wish my purpose didn’t come as a disservice

[Verse: D. Ciano]
I put my dreams on hold for you, thought you were meant for me
But late nights, eyes wide, I lied to myself for years while feeling incomplete
And that regret grew, to neglectful, yet you, still respectful, always helpful.. special
Glad I met you, shoulda kept you, let you, be the blessing you were meant to…. be
We spoke on going back to school, you pursuing your second degree
While tuition I was through with, you weren’t cool with me and music
Cause that dream made you second to me
So I questioned me, ignored the stories that were left in me, just to give you the best of me
But instead in my head while a part of me was dead, the irony was that I couldn’t rest in peace
Waking up with the thoughts of who believe in me
If I couldn’t give you my all, how could you be with me?
So I started to question what did you see in me
Then I left town the moment that you needed me
Pursue a life of my purpose, or a life with you
Which one is right to do
My time was ticking, my dream my vision, it seemed so distant
I need to get it, that wasn’t right to you
After the trust left, I grew suspect and upset to the one who was always there
When down to our last we would always share
And always care, we were always fair well for the most part
You’d impose while I composed the most art
My decisions cost me the lost of my whole heart
What’s a full tank if the car that don’t start
But I gotta take responsibly for my part
I took for granted, I took advantage, I didn’t appreciate, and started to deviate
So my word began to depreciate
Cause the early stages we couldn’t recreate
Yea, Then the text we’d abbreviate, just hoping promises could alleviate
Some of the pain or the rain, or at least just sustain instead of drain in vein so we’d be straight
You built a life in the same city, that I preferred to leave
And while I didn’t want to leave us, I could no longer defer my dreams
I know you’re closer to yours of playing pro ball, in the WNBA
Tho I write you cause I’m too afraid to call, I always pray for blessings to send your way
Yea, cause you’re an Angel
Whom I can’t thank enough
And tho there’s Enoch in me, I can’t wake him up
When I look back at the time, I didn’t take enough
And looking back at the money, I didn’t make enough
Patience is a virtue, I didn’t wait enough
When our demise arrived, It hurt inside.. [Phone Static]

[Voice on the phone]
Hello… Hello, Hello? Babe, Your breaking up
