I know you were right I know you had to go I know the house was burning down Even if it burnt slow But that don't make it easy No baby no Not with this fire That swallowed me whole Some people you can love up close Some people from afar And I guess the trick is knowing Which kind they are Of course I'm gonna love you For all of my days Heaven help me to do it From far away I know I was right I know I had to leave You were singing from a distant shore Never standing beside me But that don't make it easy No baby no Not with your sweet song In my blood and my bones Some people you can love up close Some people from afar And I guess the trick is knowing Which kind they are Of course I'm gonna love you For all of my days Heaven help me to do it From far away Show me a map, a star, a sign I'll find my way Let me come close enough to just Touch your face Some people you can love up close Some people from afar And I'm no damn good at knowing Which kind they are Of course I'm gonna love you For all of my days Heaven help me to do it From far away
