Keeping my Distance

I'm keeping my distance

I don't want to get too close to you

I don't want to interfere

With all the things you want to do

So I'll get out of the way

I'll be over here if you need me

I want to be the one, the only one

You run to

So I'm not too far away

I'm keeping my distance

Absence makes the heart grow fonder

I want you to miss me

I want you to notice I'm not here

So I'll stay in the shadows

Coming into the light when you need me the most

I want to be the one, the only one

You run to

So I'm not too far away

What if I could give you everything that I have to give?

What if I could promise you the world?

Would you come to me and tell me you trust me?

Would you put your faith in my love for you?

Until you make me yours

I'm right here

I'm keeping my distance

But I'm staying close enough to see

You can call me anytime

Whenever it is that you need me

You know I'll be around

Ready to step in and help you

I want to be the one, the only one

You run to

So I'm not too far away
