The Distance Lyrics

There's a train out in the distance
Destination still unknown
Far away, where no one's waiting
So far from home
So far from home

There's a rose outside your window
The first snow is falling down
Like that lonesome whistle blowing
I keep on going
I keep on going

Close your eyes and see my blue skies breaking
Through these dark clouds
You are the light
In my mind I see your red dress and your arms are reaching
Through the night
I'll never give up the fight
I'll go the distance

There's a bridge that runs between us
Goin' 'cross this great divide
It's only there for the believers
Don't stop believin'
Don't stop believin'

Close your eyes and see my blue skies breaking
Through these dark clouds
You are the light
In my mind I see your red dress and your arms are reaching
Through the night
I'll never give up the fight
I'll go the distance
I'll go the distance

There's a neverending story
That begins with you and I
Like the rose outside your window
Don't let it die (don't let it die)
Don't let it die

Close your eyes and see my blue skies breaking
Through these dark clouds
You are the light
In my mind I see your red dress and your arms are reaching
Through the night

Close your eyes and see my blue skies breaking
Through these dark clouds
You are the light
In my mind I See your red dress and my arms are reaching
Through the night
I'll never give up the fight
I'll go the distance

I'll go the distance
I'll go the distance
I'll go the distance
I'll go the distance

This is, I believe, the only song I prefer in the This Left Feels Right version rather than its original.

Somehow, the metaphor of the sun breaking through the clouds (as in Any other Day) always makes me think that there's always hope.
