A Bridge to You

A Bridge to You

I can’t run far enough away from myself

Wherever I go you are there in my memory

Despising the distance or

Painfully too close

Every map leads me back to you

Where is this journey ending?

It’s hard to keep pretending

Like the music on my playlist that I stole

That we shared

It wasn’t really mine to hold

But for a moment to enjoy

And I did

Every song, every rhyme, every story

You played right into my history

I’m so emotional, I thought that you were lost

But I still feel near to your heart

No matter how far apart

Let the records play

Of our love of those days

To remember the time and ease the pain

And bridge the distance of our love exchanged
