Who knows here, who knows when
On some morning without number
On some highway without end
Don't grasp my hand and say
Fate has brought you here today
Fate is only fooling with us, friend
Chorus
Keep your distance
Keep your distance
When I feel you close to me
What can I do but fall
Keep your distance
Keep your distance
With us it must be all or none at all
It's a desperate game we play
Throw our souls, our lives away
Wounds that can't be mended
And debts that can't be paid
O I played and I got stung
Now I'm biting back my tongue
And I'm sweeping out the footprints
Where I strayed
Chorus

If I cross your path again Who knows here, who knows when On some morning without number On some highway without end Don't grasp my hand and say Fate has brought you here today Fate is only fooling with us, friend Chorus Keep your distance Keep your distance When I feel you close to me What can I do but fall Keep your distance Keep your distance With us it must be all or none at all It's a desperate game we play Throw our souls, our lives away Wounds that can't be mended And debts that can't be paid O I played and I got stung Now I'm biting back my tongue And I'm sweeping out the footprints Where I strayed Chorus ----------------------------------------- Explain Request ×
