Distant Lover

[Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh, I got a distant lover
So many miles away
(So far away)
I want him close to me

[Verse 1]
I know the situation that you're thinking
And you were skeptical
Of giving up your lovin' to me
Under the circumstance
Boy, we took a chance
I never knew how good good loving would be

[Pre-Chorus]
(We made our mess so now you're gone away)
And I live everyday for the day
Just to see you again
Soon I will see you
(I'm waiting over and over just to see you again, yeah yeah)

[Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh, I got a (You know I got a) distant lover
So many miles away
(Somehow I gotta get him closer to me)
I want him close to me

[Verse 2]
Reminiscing all those long summer days
Summer nights
Doing it right, babe
You just don't know how bad
Ooh boy, I want you back
Doing the things that me you used to do, oh

[Pre-Chorus]
(We made our mess, so now you're gone away)
And I live every day for the day
Just to see you again
Soon, I (Hey, hey) I will see you again
(I can't wait to see my distant lover)

[Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh, I got a (You know I got a, yeah) distant lover
So many miles away
(Oh, oh yeah, oh yeah)
I want him close to me

[Bridge]
Oh, distant lover
You know what I'm trying to say (All night)
I'm keeping thoughts of you (Baby, all day)
That time cannot erase
(Until I see you again)
Say a prayer for me please
(Until I see you again)
And in the meantime keep thinking of me, oh oh

[Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh, I got a distant lover
So many miles away
(Somehow I gotta get him closer to me)
I want him close to me
(You know I got a)
Oh, oh, oh, I got a distant lover
So many miles away (So many, so many)
(Somehow I gotta get him my way, oh)
I want him close to me
Oh, oh, oh, I got a (You know I got a) distant lover
So many miles away
(I want him closer)
I want him close to me
(I want my baby close to me)
Oh, oh, oh, I got a distant lover
