Send "Distance" Ringtone to Cell

Though it weighs on my mind, I can't ask Tired of swimming to you, I fall silent Though I want to see you, I'm pushed by invisible waves And I find myself even further away Keep it going, baby, so it doesn't stop If you don't feel the same, then tell me Though I don't believe in forcing things It's alright to try, if it's just a little I wanna be with you now Together, let's shrink this distance If we do it now, we can make it We can start over, though we can't become one I wanna be with you now Someday, even this distance Will become something we can embrace We can start sooner, I wanna be with you after all You can be hurt this much, by just a single word But you'll teach me about loneliness When you can't protect it, keep on trying, baby Though it isn't how I promised it would be, trust me Though I don't believe in forcing things It's alright to try, if I'm with you I wanna be with you now Together, let's gaze at this distance If we do it now, we can make it We can start over, I want to put it into words I wanna be with you now Along the way, even this distance Will become something we can embrace We should stay together, I wanna be with you after all I wanna be with you now 'cause I know this can't be forever We can start over, just you and me I wanna be with you now 'cause I know this can't be forever We should stay together, just you and me I wanna be with you

    General Comment:The story behind this is sad. There was this young girl who was a huge fan of Utada in Japan. She wrote an essay about how she admired and wanted to be like Utada. Her essay won a contest at her school. Soon after, she was shot. When Utada heard of this she wrote this song.
