They say blood's thicker than water
But my world's gotten smaller
Ever since the day that
You've known about my truth
Yeah, you keep hopin' that I'll change
I keep wishin' that you'd love me
Just the same
I wish we could get close
It hurts to feel so distant
Sittin' here across the room
Wonderin' if I'll ever be
Good enough for you
Since we can't get close
I'll love you from a distance
Sittin' here across the room
Deep down still hopin'
They say, that all you need is time
To get some peace of mind
And someday I
Can be myself around you
Yeah, you keep prayin' that I'll change
I keep wishin' that you'd love me
Just the same
I wish we could get close
It hurts to feel so distant
Sittin' here across the room
Wonderin' if I'll ever be
Good enough for you
Since we can't get close
I'll love you from a distance
Sittin' here across the room
Deep down still hopin'
You say you love me
But you're pushing me away
By holding on to yesterday
Can't you understand
That this is who I am
Will you ever love me
Me for who I am
I wish we could get close
It hurts to feel so distant
Sittin' here across the room
Wonderin' if I'll never be
Good enough for you
Since we can't get close
I'll love you from a distance
Sittin' here across the room
Deep down still hopin'
