Too Far, Too Long Lyrics

All our lives we try to go a little bit faster
And those we leave behind, we plan on seeing them after
But there's an ocean between us now, and it's been too long

All I can see now are waves sent from the horizon
With bottles that they bring with notes of hope for their loved ones
But there's a lifetime between us now, and it's been too far

All the words that I've wanted to say
I can't say in these letters
All the pain that your frail voice hides
Are you feeling better?
We go on with our lives, too afraid to fly
'Cause we're traumatized
All the words that I've wanted say
Too afraid, too afraid

Then I see the sunrise and words they disappear
Then I hear the strength that your voice hides
"Have no fear," you tell me, "There's reason"
That's all I need to hear
Then you tell me, "There's reason."
That's all I need

All the words that I've wanted to say
I can't say in these letters
All the pain that your frail voice hides
Are you feeling better?
Will we go on with our lives, too afraid to fly
'Cause we're traumatized?
All the words that I've wanted say
Too afraid, too afraid

All the words that I've wanted to say
I will say in these letters
Hear strength that your frail voice hides
Hope you're feeling better
We'll go on with our lives
Not afraid to fly though we're traumatized
All the words that I've wanted to say
Are the words that I'm saying
