Six Days And One

(álbum: Instincts - 1984)

I found out not a moment too late
The times that you said what you meant
We can fade to a close, choose a descent
'Tween our hearts and the start of the line
And I find as I add up these long days
Without you
Distance equals loss, plus time

Absence, and I've gone farther
Absence, and I've gone farther
Absence, and I've gone too far
Feelings inside of us, facts and figures
Two hearts divided by irrational states
The best of our moments obscured by the clouds
As the heat of our love
Meets the rain of our hate
I found out not a moment too late
The times when you said what you meant
If forsaken abandoned to fate

Six days and one
One week now gone
One more to come
Six days and one
One week now gone
One more to come

Up another staircase, up another flight
Reach for the railing, angle toward the door
Escalator, stairway, board another flight
One last realization
I love you still more
It's hard to adhere to the changes in distance
'Tween our hearts and the start of the line
And I find as I add up these days
Without you
Distance equals loss, plus time
