SICK

Saltwater sunrise, paints the lonely shore
Empty coffee cup, another night I can't ignore
The miles that stretch between us, an aching, empty space
This distance, a cruel mistress, leaving a bitter taste

Your voice on the phone, a whisper in the wind
Can't hold you close, can't mend what's worn thin
I know we have a plan, a future hand in hand
But waiting feels like drowning, sinking in the sand

'Cause the distance makes me sick, dear (Sick, sick of love)
This yearning in my chest, a love I can't defer (Sick, sick of love)
I know patience is a virtue, a test we have to face
But this longing, oh this longing, leaving an empty space (Sick, sick of love)

Memories like ghosts, dancing in the halls
Empty picture frames, echoing silent calls
Everywhere I look, a reminder of your touch
The ache of missing you, oh darling, it's too much

They say time heals all wounds, but right now it feels like pain
Counting down the days, until we meet again
The thought of your embrace, keeps me holding on
But the distance keeps on whispering: Baby, you're all alone

'Cause the distance makes me sick, dear (Sick, sick of love)
This yearning in my chest, a love I can't defer (Sick, sick of love)
I know patience is a virtue, a test we have to face
But this longing, oh this longing, leaving an empty space (Sick, sick of love)

But even in this sickness, a flicker of hope remains
The knowledge of your love, soothes the burning pains
We'll bridge this lonely distance, with every passing day
And when we're finally together, my love will forever stay

'Cause the distance makes me sick, dear (Sick, sick of love)
This yearning in my chest, a love I can't defer (Sick, sick of love)
I know patience is a virtue, a test we have to face
But this longing, oh this longing, leaving an empty space (Sick, sick of love)

(But even when I'm sick of love, my love for you won't fade)
(Through the miles and lonely nights, my love for you will stay)
