Carrie Newcomer Distance
Distance can deepen your appreciation
I think it makes your heart forgetful
Sometimes I wonder what we do this for
But I can feel you sitting in the side seat
I can hear you whispering against my cheek
Hotel beds get big and wide
I can see me coming home to you
I can see me walking real slow and sure
I can see me coming home to you
Coming home
I've always been like so much running water
Smoothed your heart like stones in the riverbed
But sometimes I don't know my own heart and head
You are also restless and moving
You are crossing another state line
You say that you love me, but it's been a long long time
I can see me coming home to you
I can see me walking real slow and sure
I can see me coming home to you
Coming home, coming home to you
I've got hours to go, just me and my radio
With my hands filled with time I've got a hungry mind to know know it and to know you
Making peace with the past and the things that we've come to learn it like we've earned it
To live after a fashion a with some kind of passion
It's another love song that I don't have an end for
Another way of saying I hope this whole thing works out again
But I've always kept a part of my heart free
And that's the part you've been asking of me
I can see me coming home to you
I can see me walking real slow and sure
I can see me coming home to you
Coming home coming home to you
