Yearning Across the Distance
Pop ballad with a late-1990s boy-band sound: an acoustic guitar intro, soft electric guitars, synth pads and a programmed mid-tempo beat, with a male vocal group trading lead lines over stacked harmonies. Yearning and bittersweet, sung in English, about a love strained by distance and mixed signals.

Lyrics
I check my phone at three a.m.Just to see your name again.You said you’d call when you got home,But now I’m sitting here alone.The dial tone is all I hear,Wishing you were standing near.Another night, another coast,Chasing after someone’s ghost.It’s like we’re talking through a wall.I reach for you, I start to fall.You’re miles away, but in my head,Thinking ‘bout the things we said.Are we over or just far apart?I’m tired of guessing where we are.One day you love me, then you go,I’m caught between a yes and no.Are we over or just far apart?You’ve got the pieces of my heart.I’m waiting for a sign to show,Please don’t let me go.The pictures on the mantelpiece,They don't bring me any peace.I see you smiling in the sun,Back when we were only one.But now the signal’s getting weak,It’s getting harder just to speak.You’re telling me that you still care,But I can’t feel you anywhere.It’s like we’re talking through a wall.I reach for you, I start to fall.You’re miles away, but in my head,Thinking ‘bout the things we said.Are we over or just far apart?I’m tired of guessing where we are.One day you love me, then you go,I’m caught between a yes and no.Are we over or just far apart?You’ve got the pieces of my heart.I’m waiting for a sign to show,Please don’t let me go.I’d fly across the deep blue sea,If I knew you’d stay with me.Just tell me that it isn’t late,I don’t want to leave it up to fate.Give me something I can hold,Before the world turns gray and cold.Are we over or just far apart?I’m tired of guessing where we are.One day you love me, then you go,I’m caught between a yes and no.Are we over or just far apart?You’ve got the pieces of my heart.I’m waiting for a sign to show,Please don’t let me go.
