Distant Lover Lyrics - Legerdemain - Duncan Sheik

Oh, the things you say 

Can ruin a day 

We are distant lovers 

Such distant lovers 

The sky's an angry grey 

But we can't look away 

We try to break one another 

We try to break one another 

Landing in some turquoise town 

Best not sleep around 

There's whispering 

They're listening 

Then talking 

The world is watching 

Oh! Don't stay so far away 

My distant lover, my distant lover 

Oh! The things you say 

We try to break one another 

We try to break one another 

It's there in black and white 

We fuss and we fight 

I'm a difficult boy 

With a difficult mother 

So let's chalk it up to that 

The unavoidable fact 

It's a difficult world 

We try to break one another 

Some attractions take you down 

Best not mess around 

Keep walking 

There will be talking 

So much talking 

The world is watching 

Oh! Don't stay so far away 

My distant lover, my distant lover 

Oh! The things you say 

We try to break one another 

We try to break one another 

Oh! Why are you so far away? 

My distant lover, my distant lover 

No I won't hear a word they say 

I don't want to lose another 

I don't want to lose another
