Distance
Yebba Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Take me back to the distance (distance)
Late night cookin' in the kitchen, yeah, yeah
Dirty dancin' in my room
Sending my love all over you

Because of the time we shared, time we lost
In love with one another
Days we had
Pay the cost
Of losing hearts desire so soon
I'll be sending my love all over you

I still get so lost in the feelin'
And I can't imagine losing you, oh
Oh, if your heart could find a new reason
For someone special to hold onto
I wonder if I would do, yeah

Because of the time we shared, time we lost
In love with one another
Days we had
Pay the cost
Of losing hearts desire so soon (so soon, so very soon)
I'll be sending my love all over you

Take me back to the distance (distance)
Oh yeah, babe
Late night cookin' in my kitchen
Dirty dancin' in my room
I, I love the things you do
And I'm sending all my love to you

I'm sending all my love
You're the only one that I'm dreaming of
It's true
I'll be sending all my love
Sending my love all over you
Over you
Over
Sending my love all over you
Over you
Over
Sending my love all over you
Over you
Over (yeah)
Sending my love all over you
I'll be sending all my love
Over you
Over
Sending my love all over (hey) you
Over you
Over
Sending my love all over you
Over you
Over (sending)
Sending my love (yeah, baby) all over you
Sending




Over you (all my love)
Over
