Dave Nachmanoff A Certain Distance lyrics

And he finds himself behind the wheel of an unfamiliar automobile
On a road that he has never seen, going to a town he's never been to - again
And he wonders if he's lost the thread of the dreams that ran inside his head
Like a shadow, or a silhouette, rushing off to see some friends he's never met – before

CHORUS:
And the satellite is beaming down its signal, to your tiny town
But nothing's getting through
He's much too far from you – and you know it
There's a certain distance

So she stays at home and she tends the fire
And she works until her eyes are tired
Feeds the dog, pets the cat
Every now and then she wonders where he's at – right now

(CHORUS)

Maybe it's all inside your head

But time and space are not the same
No matter what Uncle Albert said…

Instrumental

Now a cloud for him means rain for you, with a ray of sunlight shining through
Every now and then and it's not enough
And you wonder, is this really all that love – can be

Extra-chorus section:
And there was a time you understood him, or at least you thought you could
But now you have your doubts, some words you can't make out
From the poet

(CHORUS)
