700 Mile Situation

(album: How I Do - 2001)

Now for all the times you must go
Notice all the things you leave
So what's behind that stare
Am I there with you

And as you turn to walk away
I can't help it
I can't help but feel those instincts
That want to dance with me

[Chorus:]
Silhouette is painted on the wall
How many times can I say that I miss you
And everybody wants to know what's wrong
It's just the 700 mile situation

Why don't you tell me what you're scared of
You make me breathe so easy
And I'm a mess with reminders of you
I often wonder where you are sometimes
I close my eyes and picture it for a while
I rise, awake to find myself without you

[Chorus]

No one can tell me I don't know
About the ins and outs of how it goes
Impulse traveler
Why can't you stay with me tonight
What's your soul taste like baby

And all them tell me I should take it slow
Don't want to find myself too deep in so
I keep stumbling
Pulling back while my dreams propelling
Don't hold back
My constitution's crumbling

[Chorus]
