Distance Lyrics

I gotta keep my distance to withstand the silence of you missing
When you’re not there to listen to this nonsense
Keep my distance to withstand the silence of you missing
When you’re not there

Men and women might yet quote his modicum of the truth
But never will they get right close to Jonathan Avram Wolf

‘Cause I gotta keep my distance to withstand the silence of you missing
When you’re not there to listen to this nonsense
Keep my distance to withstand the silence of you missing
When you’re not there

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
