love in the distance
Kings Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Love is complicated
Love from a distance
Vicious again, Haa
Love from a distance, Let's Go!
I'm just not the one
Or the type of man
That could hold on for very long
And I know it may be a little difficult to understand
Your friends said my love wasn't real
I know exactly how they feel
They said that if I really loved you distance won't be a big deal
But when we're thousands of miles away
Separated for two thousand days
I know that our love will fade away
Cuz this is not a fantasy
Missing you will just put me in decline
That is why I had to make up my mind
Just to move along with my life
Yeah
Love from a distance
It's just so hard for me to do
Love from a distance
I can't stand not being next to you
Love from a distance
Baby leaving you broke my heart
Love from a distance
But I feared our love would fade cuz we're so far apart
Sometimes we trust that it will last forever
We never really know the weather
And we're in a galaxy trying to get over
All of the things that we did together
But we will never be seeing eachother
I'm sure that someday we will recover
And this is the story of love in its darkest color
Love from a distance
It's just so hard for me to do
Love from a distance
I can't stand not being next to you
Love from a distance
Baby leaving you broke my heart
Love from a distance
But I feared our love would fade cuz we're so far apart
I was broken down inside
I hid the pain behind my pride
It wasn't easy leaving the girl That I planned on making my bride
Baby I had to free you of
The strong bondage of my love
So you could focus on those goals that you've been so long dreaming of
I guess I found all the answers
Time to break my old patterns
We move on to the next
And boy I'm wishing you the best
No more stars and wild flowers
No more late night hours
No more us counting cheques
It's time to put this shit to rest!
Love from a distance
Love from a distance
Love from a distance
Love from a distance
Love from a distance
Love from a distance

Overall Meaning

In "Love in the Distance," Kings sings about the struggles of long-distance relationships. The song begins with the acknowledgement that love is complicated, especially when it's from a distance. Kings admits that he's just not the type of man who can hold on for very long, and he understands that his love may be difficult to understand. This is further reinforced by the friends of the person he loves, who do not believe his love is real. They argue that if he truly loved this person, the distance wouldn't be a big deal, but Kings knows better. He recognizes that being thousands of miles away, separated for years, would make their love fade away.


Despite this, Kings still struggles to let go of the person he loves, as seen in the repeated lines of "love from a distance." The pain of not being able to see them and not being next to them is heart-wrenching, and he admits that leaving them broke his heart. However, in the end, he knows that it's the right decision. He had to free them from the strong bondage of his love so that they could focus on their own goals and dreams. He found all the answers and realized that it was time to break his old patterns and move on.


Overall, "Love in the Distance" is a reflection on the difficulties of long-distance relationships and the pain of letting go of someone you love. It is a poignant reminder that sometimes, even though we may love someone deeply, distance can make it impossible to be together.

It’s crazy that Derivakat has became so popular that people who may not even know the world behind the song could fall in love with the song and enjoy it enough to make something so cool from it! Great job as always, Hollynn! :D
