Too Far To Reach

The holidays have come and gone
You're flying home now across the pond
I'm stuck in traffic back here on earth
25 miles outside Fort Worth

And it doesn't matter how much I love you
When the world's working so hard
To keep me from you
You're lying down in London
I'm waking up in Tennessee
Three thousand miles between us
And a love too far to reach

We're moving faster than the speed of light
Your night's my day and my day's your night
Chasing after what's called success
No time to think and no time to rest

And it doesn't matter how much I need you
When it takes some kind of screen just to see you
You're waking up in London
I'm on the road to New Orleans
Three thousand miles between us
And a love too far to reach

What will this time and space do to us
I don't know, I don't know
Can we hold on to the two of us
Maybe so, I don't know

And it doesn't matter how much I want you
If I can't have you near when I want to
You're flying in to LA
I'm driving back to Tennessee
Three thousand miles between us
And a love too far to reach
Three thousand miles between us
And a love too far to reach
