I reached for you across the room Like there was distance to cross Like you were over there And I was over here, at a loss I counted all the steps it took To get to where you stand Somewhere between the first one And the last, I lost track of the plan Your hand in mine and something broke Not my heart, something older than that The idea that we were two Standing on separate maps I'd built a whole life on the space I thought was here between your eyes and mine Turns out I was measuring a distance That never left a line Where does my skin end Where does yours begin I've been looking for the line all my life And it was never there to find No space between us No space between us Never was, never was Just this — appearing as two Just this — appearing as me and you I used to think that I loved you Now I'm not sure who's who The lover and the loved Both dissolving into the view I keep waiting for the moment When I'll find my way back to you and me But there's no road leading home When home was never two things to be Not merging — we were never split Not becoming one — there was no two to fix Just this noticing Just this arriving As if it just now happened What was always so No space between us No space between us Never was, never was Just this — appearing as two Just this — appearing as me and you Just this — no me, no you
