Lyrics

LONG DISTANCE LOVE

I keep looking at your picture
Hanging on my wall
I kiss it every time I see it
More than I can recall

I savor every letter
Lay them all out side by side
I know every word by heart
Let the “love you’s” be my guide

Something is missing
We deserve so much better
Cause, baby, we belong together


I know you know
There’s got to be another way
I know you know
You are too far away
I know you know
This doesn’t feel right
Because long distance love
Ain’t keeping me warm tonight


When’s the last time I saw you
When were your lips touching mine
I think that I can taste you
Swallow up your sweet, sweet wine

I reach out to hold you
I call out your name
But I know you understand
It’s just not the same

Something is missing
We deserve so much better
Cause, baby, we belong together


CHORUS


We may be burning up the telephone wires
But I’m tired of lighting the home fires alone


CHORUS
