"Go Long" lyrics

"Go Long"

I could say
Anything just to talk to you now
And I could break
The silence with something so profound

But that won't make any or all of the distance
Better or close, I get it but listen
Nothing that's easy has ever been instant
Free up your mind, close your eyes, take it slow

I don't wanna give up now and let it go
See it as an, "Aww, that was good," and now it's gone
I don't wanna say another word over a call
Wanna be here right here, right now with you
Break another promise and move on
Try to play the shift but it's always going long
I wanted all the right words now they're feeling wrong
Just wanna be right here, right now with you

It's hard to know if this life that we ride
Is made of fate or just luck mixed with time
I hate to think that there's nothing inside
You make me feel like it's by design

Everything constant like nothing is lost in
A distant translation of words that meant something
I see the difference the feeling is instant
Know when you're listening, the whole world goes missing

I don't wanna give up now and let it go
See it as an, "Aww, that was good," and now it's gone
I don't wanna say another word over a call
Wanna be here right here, right now with you
Break another promise and move on
Try to play the shift but it's always going long
I wanted all the right words now they're feeling wrong
Just wanna be right here, right now with you

And I could feel it in the waves
They break on us and let us go
Pulling at the waist
I make my way back to you
Alone inside the ocean blue
Treading in place

I don't wanna give up now and let it go
See it as an, "Aww, that was good," and now it's gone
I don't wanna say another word over a call
Wanna be here right here, right now with you
Break another promise and move on
Try to play the shift but it's always going long
I wanted all the right words now they're feeling wrong
Just wanna be right here, right now with you
