The Space Between Us Lyrics

Melanie Doane The Space Between Us

Speak of love in a warm embrace
          Speak of hope in a smiling face
          Speak of peace in the stars up there
          Speak of faith in a silent prayer
          But when I'm speaking to you
          and you're speaking to me
          things get complicated
          When you're speaking to me
          and I'm speaking to you
          voices are isolated
          Words just push the air around
          Gotta find some common ground
          in the space between us
          Speak of fear that has no name
          Speak of hate that seeks to blame
          Speak of pain behind each wall
          Speak of death that touches us all
          But when I'm speaking to you
          and you're speaking to me
          There's so much frustration
          When you're speaking to me
          and I'm speaking to you
          No communication
          Words of fear and words of rage
          Break the bars of this cage
          in the space between us
          But when I'm speaking to you
          and you're speaking to me
          things get complicated
          When you're speaking to me
          and I'm speaking to you
          voices are isolated
          Words just push the air around
          Gotta find some common ground
          in the space between us
