The closer I am
The farther you are
And your silence screams louder
Than the beating of my heart

So I must obtain
Resistance
Because this temptation is
too crude
Oh, but yet the
Distance
Is greatest when I am
near you

And I should run, run away
But instead I stay right here
Because you needn't any words
To eliminate my fear

Just a gaze in your eye
A caressing of skin
And I'm undeniably willing
To fall in love all over again

And this relentless
Resistance
Is but all that I cannot remain true to
Because of this bittersweet
Distance
That keeps me hopelessly chasing after you
