Distance Lyrics - John Hiatt

You are the beautiful lover 

My Lover 

I am the distant shore 

So far away 

There is so much to uncover 

Love's hiding 

What is this distance for 

What is it for 

Out of the dark I am falling 

I'm fallin' 

Into your warm candle flame 

So bright 

A butterfly pinned to love's calling 

Love's calling 

Why must this magic be named 

Must it be named 

We've filled the air 

With silent stares 

But still no one dares 

We are strangers 

The sad jealous praise 

As the symphony plays 

And we are the foolish arrangers 

The foolish arrangers
