The Distance, Written And Performed By Clara Baker

This is a demo of some of my original work to share with friends and family. It was recorded in March 2011 in Lawrence, KS.

THE DISTANCE
The rain falls fast
In my mind
Cause everywhere I glance
You are the sky

I know the sun from your window
The distance in my mind
The cold walk in the morning
Ended with a kiss goodbye, Goodbye

With both feet on the ground
Winter sings in this small town
To lie, I don’t mind being alone
No, it’s just the drive and the silence that gets to me

I sleep for months without dreaming
Now forever tired
Alone til the day you’ll ask me
What truth is there in rhyme

With both feet on the ground
Winter sings in this small town
Til I don’t mind being alone
It’s just your eyes and your smile still get to me
Til I don’t mind being alone
It’s just the silence and the distance that gets to me
That gets to me
