Mark Free: Long way from love [lyrics]

Mark Free

Long way from love

Is it tenderness or torture,

Joy that only ends in pain

As the cold blue light of morning

Steals you from my side again.

You set my senses burning

And the embers linger on,

A wildfire of yearning

In the ashes of the dawn.

Your restless soul keeps running free,

It's like asking the wind to belong to me.

You won't let me go, but you'd better know

We're a long way from love,

A long way from forever.

Tomorrow waits for us.

Baby, it's now or never.

Half a heart's not good enough.

We're long way from love.

"I'll come back soon," you tell me,

With the fading of the stars.

When these arms ache to hold you,

Time's a prison without bars.

I collect my stolen moments,

All the bitter with the sweet,

How you let your touch torment me,

Walk away and watch me bleed.

I'm living on a desperate prayer

Someday you'll turn, around and learn to care

We can make it through, but it's up to you.

We're a long way from love,

A long way from forever.

Tomorrow waits for us.

Baby, it's now or never.

Half a heart's not good enough

We're a long, long way from love.

Casting off the night's disguises,

Heaven ends when day begins.

Playing hit and run with heartache,

It's a game nobody wins.

(Repeat Chorus)
