Heart Grow Fonder

Sing me a childhood lullaby
Speak softly and kiss me goodnight
If I close my eyes I see you laying there
But when I open them wide I know you're miles away from here

They say distance makes the heart grow fonder
That it toughens the love, makes you stronger
But baby we ain't got the time to squander
And I don't think I can take it any longer

Another cold hotel to rest my head
Strangled by these sheets wishing I was in your bed
Beyond the nights together it's the getting along
So I fall asleep to a familiar song

They say distance makes the heart grow fonder
That it toughens the love, makes you stronger
But baby we ain't got the time to squander
And I don't think I can take it any longer

I'm sick of mini bars
I'm sick of counting stars
And counting hours to be in your arms

Time is the burden
One I've been learning
Gets heavier the longer she takes

That's why they say

Distance makes the heart grow fonder
That it toughens the love, makes you stronger
But baby we ain't got the time to squander
And I don't think I want to take it not more
And I don't think I can take it any longer
