Lyrics: Shawn McDonald. Closer. The Space Between Us.

I'm still up and it's 3 in the mornin'
Try to sleep but my mind keeps goin'
Am I awake 'cause you're trying to speak to me?
Lyin' here with my ears wide open
Can you fix what I know I've broken?
There's a hole in my heart where I need you to be

But I'm right here and you're right there
Will you take this wall I've built and tear it down?

And do what you always do
Makin' the ocean blue
Takin' away the space between us
Filling it up with more of you

And do what you always do
'Cause you're my rescue
Takin' away the space between us
Takin' away the space between
Me and you, me and you

Never really meant to be so distant
Should of known that it made no difference
You were holding my hand when I walked away
And you were there in the middle of the nights
You were there when I lost my sights
And you're still here with me today

And do what you always do
Makin' the ocean blue
Takin' away the space between us
Filling it up with more of you

And do what you always do
'Cause you're my rescue
Takin' away the space between us
Takin' away the space between
Me and you, me and you

But I'm right here and you're right there
Will you take this wall I've built and tear it down?

And do what you always do
Makin' the ocean blue
Takin' away the space between us
Filling it up with more of you

And do what you always do
'Cause you're my rescue
Takin' away the space between us
Takin' away the space between
Me and you, me and you
Me and you, me and you
