when i was a child i saw her every day. i never dared to touch her
scared to break that spell
and now the years have passed us by
and all that could've been is left behind
'cause i loved her safe from the distance
every day a million people flow the street
their faces blank
they talk but do not ever meet. they all have important things to do. they all have things to watch on tv. 'cause they all watch life safe from a distance. they all touch love safe from a distance. but i want it!
and i need it!
come and touch me!
come and reach me!
through a distance. 'cause we all live life safe from a distance
