each night i feel the distance that has grown between us
Open up as lonely as the space between the stars
I wish that i could find a way
To smash my fist right through these walls
Of ugliness and emptiness
And gently touch your face

(chorus)
But every time that i touch you
You feel so far away
And every time that you need me
I feel so far away

As you lie silently beside me choking back your tears
I wonder if you recognize
That silence now defines us
Desperately i try to fight this overwhelming sense
That i may never find
The strength to change
How hopeless we've become

(chorus)
And every time that i touch you
You feel so far away
And every time that you need me
I feel so far away

(bridge)
We need to find a way to break this silence
We need to find a way to break this silence
We need to find a way to break this silence that's between us
So i scream your name

(chorus)
But every time that i touch you
You feel so far away
And every time that you need me
I feel so far away
And every time that you reach out
You feel me pull away
And every time that i touch you, i touch you, i touch you
You feel so far away
