Thousand Mile Reach

And I find myself doubting we ever shared the secrets I thought we did
My heart burned and overflowed, and I’m still not sure if you minded it
I want to crush your pain into a pill, and swallow it so you don’t have to
I want to pour your hurt into a glass and drink it down before you do
But I can’t reach you through the phone
You asked me how you can respond when someone says the perfect thing
So I split open to let you in, well aware of the damage it could bring
I want to crush your pain into a pill, and swallow it so you don’t have to
I want to pour your hurt into a glass and drink it down before you do
But I can’t reach you through the phone
In the fall, you moved away
I tried to grow my arms long enough
But when bodies broke down
Trouble was more than love could overcome
I want to crush your pain into a pill, and swallow it so you don’t have to
I want to pour your hurt into a glass and drink it down before you do
But I can’t reach you through the phone
