I Only Get So Far

When I turn to you
When I try you at home
When I walk in your direction
When I recheck my phone

When I offer my hand
When I say what I feel
When I question your intentions
When I rethink what's real

When I reach out day or night
I never know where you are
No matter how hard I try
I only get so far

When I wanna give up
When I ask all your friends
When I stare off into nowhere
When I think how this ends

When I reach out day or night
I never know where you are
No matter how hard I try
I only get so far

What I don't know about you could fill up a book
But I do have my doubts and things I can't overlook

When I whisper your name
When I doubt if I trust
When I wade through the confusion
When I think about us

When I reach out day or night
I never know where you are
No matter how hard I try
I only get so far

No matter how hard I try
I only get so far
No matter how hard I try
I only get so far
