You say I matter
So why do you try and shatter
Every piece of me

I know it takes two
But you know I can't be there with you
And that's all I wanna be

I said I'm sorry but
I just can't get enough
Cause you belong to me

But how does it feel
To pretend I'm not real
When the distance between just isn't ideal
So open your eyes a day at a time
And I'm closer to being next to you
Oohhh ohhh
Next to you
Ohhh oh oh

The worst part of it all
Is that I keep building this wall
To push me away from you

But I want you to break it
To show me that we can make it
Cause that's all I wanna do

I said I'm sorry but
I just can't get enough
Cause I belong to you

How does it feel
To pretend I'm not real
When the distance between
Just isn't ideal

So open your eyes
A day at a time
And I'm closer to
Being next to you
Oohh ohhh
Next to you
Ohhh oh oh

I know that I'd make you mine
If you would just make the time
You say that you need me
It's never that easy

How does it feel to pretend I'm not real
When the distance between just isn't ideal
So open your eyes a day at a time
And I'm closer to being next to you
Oooo ohhh oooo
And I'm closer to
Being next to you
