700 Mile Situation Lyrics
Now for all the times you must go
Notice all the things you leave
So what's behind that stare
Am I there with you
And as you turn to walk away
I can't help it
I can't help but feel those instincts
That want to dance with me
[Chorus:]
Silhouette is painted on the wall
How many times can I say that I miss you
And everybody wants to know what's wrong
It's just the 700 mile situation
Why don't you tell me what you're scared of
You make me breathe so easy
And I'm a mess with reminders of you
I often wonder where you are sometimes
I close my eyes and picture it for a while
I rise, awake to find myself without you
[Chorus]
No one can tell me I don't know
About the ins and outs of how it goes
Impulse traveler
Why can't you stay with me tonight
What's your soul taste like baby
And all them tell me I should take it slow
Don't want to find myself too deep in so
I keep stumbling
Pulling back while my dreams propelling
Don't hold back
My constitution's crumbling
[Chorus]
Notice all the things you leave
So what's behind that stare
Am I there with you
I can't help it
I can't help but feel those instincts
That want to dance with me
Silhouette is painted on the wall
How many times can I say that I miss you
And everybody wants to know what's wrong
It's just the 700 mile situation
You make me breathe so easy
And I'm a mess with reminders of you
I often wonder where you are sometimes
I close my eyes and picture it for a while
I rise, awake to find myself without you
About the ins and outs of how it goes
Impulse traveler
Why can't you stay with me tonight
What's your soul taste like baby
Don't want to find myself too deep in so
I keep stumbling
Pulling back while my dreams propelling
Don't hold back
My constitution's crumbling

It's a song about long-distance relationships..a very heartfelt one at that.
Yes, this is obviously a song about long distance relationships. But also one about falling too fast, when everyone's telling you not to, and you're not even sure yourself. "Don't wanna find myself too deep in so/ I keep stumbling/Pulling back while my dream's propelling" There's that fear that goes hand in hand with falling in love. The fear of getting hurt.
I have been away from my girlfriend (a 3,000 mile situation) for awhile this summer. And my step-mom introduced me to Res recently. "how many times can I say that miss you?"
