How far is the sun?

Or the moon?

And the stars?

The distance between you and I?

Always told to reach for the sky

If I didn’t pay attention

Life would simply pass me by

I can only move forward

There’s no going back

I have to keep moving

Keep reaching toward

Those goals and dreams

That I hold in my heart

But the more I reach for them

The further we grow apart

I’m holding on for dear life

I don’t want to let go

But I can feel the distance

Making our hearts cold

Sometimes we’re up

And other times we are down

Yet we both stick around

Trying to avoid the inevitable

How do you achieve the impossible?

Skating on thin ice

Hanging by a thread

So many shoulda, coulda, woulda

Too many words unsaid

Too selfish to do the right thing

I’m right when I’m with you

Now it all feels wrong

I’m reaching for the moon

But where does that leave you?
