CHRISTINA PERRI

- Distance Lyrics

The sun is filling up the room and I can hear you dreaming
Do you feel the way I do, right now?
I wish we would just give up
'Cause the best part is falling, call it anything but love

And I will make sure to keep my distance
Say "I love you" when you're not listening
And how long can we keep this up, up, up?

Please don't stand so close to me, I'm having trouble breathing
I'm afraid of what you'll see, right now
I'll give you everything I am
All my broken heartbeats until I know you'll understand
And I will make sure to keep my distance
Say "I love you" when you're not listening
And how long can we keep this up, up, up?

And I keep waiting for you to take me
You keep waiting to say what we have

So I'll make sure to keep my distance
Say "I love you" when you're not listening
And how long can we keep this up, up, up?

Make sure to keep my distance
Say "I love you" when you're not listening
How long till we call this love, love, love?

When we try to understand the message behind it, the ballad 'Distance' by Christina Perri narrates the difficulty of keeping a distance within a couple if the emotions are too intense. The words illustrate the anxiety of being open and the challenge of having love together, wondering for how long this emotional gap can last before admitting the existence of true love. Distance lyrics mainly highlight love, heartbreak, angst, reflection and hope. However, the song also conveys the necessity of unrequited love, emotional distance, and the ambiguity in relationships.

This song makes me feel like there is (let's say) person A and they love person B. Person B isn't really sure about they're relationship with person A. On the other hand person A is in love and hopes that person B feels the same way. So person A gives person B ( I'm guessing) space (or distance) so person B can think about it but still saying that they love person B and is waiting and hoping that person B will understand if what they have could be called love.

This song is this moment wit a man that can't make up his mind on what he wants. Full knowing of how I feel but is unable to make up his mind what he wants...

To me this song represents a fear of commitment on his part, when all she really wants is to know that he is willing to feel the same way. A one-sided predicament I tend to put myself in often.
