Love Is A Matter Of Distance Lyrics

Love is a matter of difference
Between you and me
Love is a matter of distance
That you are too far away
Love is a matter of growing
And knowing true feelings
Love is a matter of showing
That you are too far away

When my heart is open
My mind is opening to find
I can't let you stay
The love is a matter of distance
You are too far away

Love is a matter of input
Outlook, deep inside
Love is to know you're on my side
That you are so far away

When my heart is open
My mind is opening to find
I can't let you stay
The love is a matter of distance
You are too far away

If love is a matter of distance
You are too far away

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

"A matter of difference", of the difference that the other person is too far away or the differencies the couple's got~ "matter of growing, knowing true feelings, showing", probably, you learn the other person, you show your real feelings, you grow, not in age but in "heart"~ "when my heart is open, my mind is open to find, i can't let you stay", well, the other person has to leave from where his/her lover stays
