Heart Grow Fonder

Sing me a childhood lullaby Speak softly and kiss me goodnight If I close my eyes I see you laying there But when I open them wide I know you're miles away from here They say distance makes the heart grow fonder That it toughens the love, makes you stronger But baby we ain't got the time to squander And I don't think I can take it any longer Another cold hotel to rest my head Strangled by these sheets wishing I was in your bed Beyond the nights together it's the getting along So I fall asleep to a familiar song They say distance makes the heart grow fonder That it toughens the love, makes you stronger But baby we ain't got the time to squander And I don't think I can take it any longer I'm sick of mini bars I'm sick of counting stars And counting hours to be in your arms Time is the burden One I've been learning Gets heavier the longer she takes That's why they say Distance makes the heart grow fonder That it toughens the love, makes you stronger But baby we ain't got the time to squander And I don't think I want to take it not more And I don't think I can take it any longer
