[Verse 1]
Don't you dare think
That I don't think about you
Just cause we can't speak
Doesn't mean you're not on my mind
Like a ghost
Like the moon
Like a God
Like a truth
[Chorus]
I'll be watching from a distance
I'll be watching from a distance
Don't be deceived by my demeanor
I am paying attention
[Verse 2]
Assume all you want
That I'm a liar and a fool
That I got a crooked heart
That lives to bend and break the rules
But like the clock on your wall
Like the cheap seats in a concert hall
[Chorus]
I'll be watching from a distance
I'll be watching from a distance
I'll be watching from a distance
I'll be watching from a distance
[Bridge]
Ooh
Ooh
Oo-ooh
Oo-ooh
[Verse 3]
It's been a dark night
(I can spend it all with you)
It's gonna be alright
(In the night it's gonna be)
You hold the power
Don't you
Don't you
My delicate flower
[Outro]
Don't be deceived by my demeanor
I am paying attention

Most times, when a relationship ends, there is a season of mourning but then the clouds part, the sun rises, and we move on. What happens if and when the sun doesn’t rise? What happens if, no matter how hard we try, we can’t move on?
