I got a distant lover
So many mile away
So far away
I want him close to me

I know the situation that you're thinking
And you were skeptical
Of giving up your loving to me
Under the circumstance
Boy, we took a chance
I never knew good good loving would be
We made our messes
Now you're gone away
And I live everyday
For the day
Just to see you again
Soon I will see you again

I got a distant lover
So many miles away
Somehow I gotta get him closer to me
I want him close to me

Reminiscing all those long summer days
Summer nights
Doing it right, babe
You just don't know how bad
Oh, boy I want you back
Doing the things that me and you used to do

We made our messes
Now you're gone away
And I live everyday
For the day
Just to see you again
I just wait to see my distant lover
I got a distant lover
So many miles away
Oh yeah I want him close to me
I want him close to me
(Oh distant lover)
You know what I'm trying to say
(Waiting all night, waiting all day)
I'm keeping thoughts of you
That I can't erase
(Until I see you again)
Say a prayer for me please
(Until I see you again)
And in the meantime keep thinking of me
