There's a distance in the air and
I cannot make it leave
I wave my arms 'round about me
and blow with all my might
I cannot sense you close
though I know you're always here
But the comfort of you
near is what I long for
When I can't feel you
I have learned to reach out
just the same
When I can't hear you
I know you still hear
every word I pray
And I want you more than
I want to live another day
And as I wait for you maybe
I'm made more faithful
All the folly of the past though
I know it is undone
I still feel the guilty one
still trying to make it right
So I whisper soft your name
let it roll around my tongue
knowing you're the only one
who knows me You know me
When I can't feel you
I have learned to reach out
just the same
When I can't hear you
I know you still hear
every word I pray
And I want you more than
I want to live another day
And as I wait for you maybe
I'm made more
Show me how I should live this
Show me where I should walk
I count this world as a loss to me
You are all I want
You are all I want
When I can't feel you
I have learned to reach out
just the same
When I can't hear you
I know you still hear
every word I pray
And I want you more than
I want to live another day
And as I wait for you maybe
I'm made more
As I wait for you maybe
I am made more
As I wait for you
