This Is What You Get
John Lindberg Trio Lyrics

Oceans apart day after day
We are physically separated and cannot be together for extended periods of time.

And I slowly go insane
This distance is causing me emotional distress and impacting my mental health.

I hear your voice on the line
Even though we are apart, we can still communicate through technology.

But it doesn't stop the pain
Hearing your voice is not enough to ease the emotional pain of being apart for so long.

If I see you next to never
We may not have the opportunity to see each other again in the foreseeable future.

How can we say forever
It's difficult to commit to a long-term future when we're not sure when we'll see each other again.

Wherever you go
You have the freedom to go where you want in life.

Whatever you do
You have the freedom to pursue your own interests and goals.

I will be right here waiting for you
Despite the distance, I will always be here for you when you return.

Whatever it takes
I'm willing to endure anything to maintain our relationship and connection, even if it means personal sacrifice.

Or how my heart breaks
Even if this separation is emotionally difficult or painful, I will continue to endure it.

I took for granted, all the times
I didn't fully appreciate the time we did have together and assumed it would always be there.

That I thought would last somehow
I believed our time together would never end and took it for granted.

I hear the laughter, I taste the tears
I remember both the happy and sad moments we shared in the past.

But I can't get near you now
Despite my memories, I am still physically separated from you and cannot be close to you at the moment.

Oh, can't you see it baby
I hope you can understand how much this distance is affecting me.

You've got me going crazy
I'm struggling to cope with this separation and it's making me feel unstable.

I will be right here waiting for you
No matter what happens or how long we're apart, I will always be here for you.
