We’ve Run the Distance lyrics

[Verse 1]
Red, yellow, and the blues
I wrote this song for you
I look for the word just to numb the pain
While silent you remain
In our rule there's no room
For a human touch to take us away
Just a coal on a chair that's goin' nowhere
Sits there night and day

[Chorus]
Sometimes when it rains
My heart cannot explain why we are broken
If loneliness is part of our story from the start
We've run the distance (Yeah)

[Verse 2]
Theres a man at a table with an oak on his back
No weight he can't bare
There's a woman with a story that nobody knows
'Cause no one ever cared
How can you live your life with the will to hide
The circ*mstance you fear?
Am I supposed to be immune
To the suffering I feel?
[Chorus]
Sometimes when it rains
My heart cannot explain why we are broken
If loneliness is part of our story from the start
We've run the distance

[Chorus]
Sometimes when it rains
My heart cannot explain why we are broken
If loneliness is part of our story from the start
We've run the distance

[Bridge]
Silence, you remain
Like the loneliest refrain
Not a whisper
Echoes of the heart
Have torn us apart
We've run the distance

[Chorus]
Sometimes when it rains
My heart cannot explain why we are broken
If loneliness is part of our story from the start
We've run the distance
