Distance Brings Us Closer Lyrics by The Lost Trades

The Bird, The Book & The Barrel

0

[Verse]
Bird song through my open window
Crayon chasing paper rainbows
Watch the shadows climb the wall
Mark the passage of the day
[Verse]
Strange days full of contradictions
Play safe, playground derelictions
Faces hide behind the glass
Strangers pass the time of day
[Pre-Chorus]
And although I count the ticking of the clock
To hear your knuckles knocking at my door
I’d give anything to stop things from returning
To the way they were before
[Chorus]
Cos as the distance brings us closer
We learn to look out for each other
So that when all this is over
We won’t have to be alone
And then the distance brings us home
Home... Ooooh
[Verse]
Blue skies, no trace of imperfection
Road signs with no one there to heed them
Bees returning to the bud
As nature takes back what it’s owed
[Pre-Chorus]
And although I count the hours of the day
To see your face appearing at my door
I’ll endeavour to be grateful for the little things
That I used to ignore
[Chorus]
Cos as the distance brings us closer
We’re looking out for one another
So that when all this is over
We won’t have to be alone
[Chorus]
As the distance brings us closer
Feel my hand upon your shoulder
And know that when all this is over
You won’t have to be alone
So let the distance bring you Home
Home
Let the distance bring you home... Oooh
Let the distance bring you home
