Cover art for Distance lyrics by Christina Perri

When I discovered this song on Spotify, I fell in love. These lyrics spoke to me. It exactly described the relationship I was in with someone who I was deeply in love with.

We were "dating" and not "official"-- we couldn't be because of our circumstances. I fell in love head over heels, and I was never sure if he felt the same. So just like in the song, I didn't want to ruin what we had, or scare him off, By saying "I love you" to him.

When I was going through some traumatic things, that depressed me, I didn't want him to see me the way that I was. But I had no one else to go to, and I wanted him to be the one to support me emotionally.

Every time we were together, I held back my tongue. I was always waiting for him to take me, But he was waiting for me to try to be friends.

SIGH... this song totally relates to that relationship... =\

I totally know what you mean. This song reminds me of my relationship with my best friend. We had a bit of an interesting past when we were little, and became very close again in high school.

He has a girlfriend that hes been with since they were in seventh grade, (He's sixteen)but somehow I learned that my interpretation of what happened when were little is very different from his, due to a bit of a sickness I had had at the time. I had also forgotten a promise he had made me when we were little, but he hadn't....

this song reflected my circumtances rightnow. [We were "dating" and not "official"-- we couldn't be because of our circumstances.] that ezactly could be found in this song!

I have a new friend lately, we talked each other about our circumstances, he let me know everything, and so i did the same.

Everything is OK until suddenly he hug me and say "i luv u", and i cant resist it >o<

Now, i feel so strange we "dating" but NOT "officialy". Dunno what to do until now.. Hear this song make me feel...
