So Close Yet So Far Away

We survive the storms of life in all kinds of weather
 And we're as close as two sweethearts could be
 But we're a husband and a wife who can't be together
 When there's a thousand miles distance between you and me
 Cos I need you here more than I need these tears
 The more you're gone the more I miss you every day
 Until I'm holdin' you tight
 There won't be nothing right
 When we're so close yet we're so far away
 When I'm so tired of being alone
 And I call you on the phone
 For just a moment it's like you're right here with me
 And the miles that we're apart they start breakin' my heart
 How far away and how much closer can two sweethearts be
 Cos I need you here more than I need these tears
 The more you're gone the more I miss you every day
 Until I'm holdin' you tight
 There won't be nothing right
 When we're so close yet ... we're so far away
