[Verse 1]
How many tears must we cry before learning
Things that we have, they're for real and we're losing?

[Chorus]
Can't get close enough to you
'Cause you're just too far away

[Verse 2]
Why do you believe that we've got something coming?
You took it all, left me standing here with nothing

[Chorus]
Can't get close enough to you
'Cause you're just too far away
Too far away
Too far away

[Verse 3]
In your world you must be dreaming, if you think you can survive
Taking all and giving nothing, that's a crime

[Pre-Chorus]
What makes you something special?
What about me? Well I'm here too
You don't care what I'm feeling and that's the truth
[Chorus]
Can't get close enough to you
'Cause you're just too far away

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 4]
All I need is understanding and the right to survive
Only you could see the warnings and pass me by

[Pre-Chorus]
What makes you something special?
What about me? Well I'm here too
You don't care what I'm feeling and that's the truth

[Chorus]
Can't get close enough to you
'Cause you're just too far away
Too far away
Can't get close enough to you
'Cause you're just too far away

[Verse 1]
How many tears must we cry before learning
Things that we had, they're for real and we're losing?
[Chorus]
Can't get close enough to you (to you)
'Cause you're just too far away (far away)
Too far away
Too far away, yeah (away)
Too far away
