The Distant One ft Arshad Ansari.

[Saad]
He said it all today,
Putting his heart on the plate,
Waiting for the words she's say.
Crossed his fingers but he never looked away.
Wishing he could just look in her eyes,
Fold the steps to her.
Distance is distance, a mere number.
He'd look in her eyes and say,
If only you'd seen it my way.
He seems lost, to every night he's been up.
Wishing on stars for the courage to burst open.
Shooting for the stars,
Trying to jump but never fall.
Now he falls free,
Freely fallin'.
And here's what he said...

[Arshad]
I said it today,
I poured my heart out.
There was nothing left to say,
Doing so,
I then palpitated,shivered to death.
To have that small reply.
But....
"A long distant one it is more of a waste of time" she said,
Love being far is more intense.
Give it a shot I say...
I wont let you go, I won't let you down.
Because if I do,
My things are gonna get more complicated for the coming days.
There's nothing gonna be that simple to it I say.
Now, if we try "love"...
Even if "an hour" call you spare.
my love for you wont experience rust,
Just more intense it would get.

5 minutes.

If I had five minutes to live,
I'd knock on your door.
Feeling the coldness pushing me away.
I'd be sorry for everything,
For the dissappointment that I've been.
For the times I've let you down.
I'm sorry but I just didn't drown.
If I told you I was going away.
Would it be love that you'd show?
Or the sympathy that you could never grow.
For the pain in my eyes is real.
In a while, I'll be left with nothing to feel.
If you heard the knock on your door,
Will make tears allow me in,
Can I say I'm sorry for what I've been,
For the times I've let you down.
Disappointing and for all those frowns.
If I told you I was going away.
Would you forgive me and hold me today.
For the last time, make me feel that way.
If its fake just let me go,
If its a bother, just let me know.

Sleepless.

In the corners you'll find me.
When the sun is about to set,
Look for me, and I'll be sitting there to weep.
Sleepless and esteemless, find me there.
For before the clouds starts to crash.
I forget how to feel.
Feeling so lost,
All I feel is the darkness inside,
Like a cloud in my chest, it pains.
Shaking up my world and I forget how to think.
You see me sitting, stare into my blank eyes.
Emotionless and thoughtless, feel this cold.
When the stars are about to fall,
Wishes that we couldn't wish for,
Staring into the sky, you're thinking of her.
Look for me, to lean on.
Find me in the corner, forgotten how to live.
Lifeless and souless, find me lying there.
May angels lead me in.
Here I meet my friends.

The old me.

Hand me that photograph.
Photograph of us three,
You point at me saying,
That's who I used to be...
I didn't want this,
I never wanted this..

When I cried to sleep,
The other night you held me tight.
Talking sense into me and I learned from you.
I said a few things, and they got to you.
You smiled at me, saying.
That's who you used to be, The real you.
I didn't want this,
I never wanted this..

I shut myself out, and changed myself.
I'm sorry everyday, but I remember that day.
Scraping onto my wounds, I was alone.
Torturing myself to give up.
Hammering a wall, outside of me.
Forgetting the me, I used to be.
Remembering the pain I used to feel.
Waking up feeling different every morning,
And you're here now,
Years after we've set apart.
Telling me who I used to be.
Hurting me inside,
That's who I wish you'd still be, the old you.
I didn't want this,
I never wanted this...

How am I supposed to do this?

When we're at the corner of the brigde,
With our feet hanging above the shore.
You look at me with those twinkling eyes.
Lean onto me, hold my hand and tell me.
How am I supposed to do this?

A few miles away,
Under these stars you'll breathe.
Away from me, away from love.
I wish I was a star, up above.

When I hold you for the last time,
You look at me with those twinkling eyes.
Expecting me to tell you I love you,
Expecting me to brush your cheeks for one last time,
But I ask you, one more time...
How am I supposed to do this?

Wiping away one of my tears,
I felt you smile on my shoulder.
You held my hand and stared again..
Piercing right through my soul.
You read me like a book,
Whispering in my ear, I hear you say.
With elegance, with love. With me, you're doing this.

A few miles away,
Under these stars you'll breathe.
Away from me, away from love.
I wish I was a star, up above.

The key.

I know I've said it,
But I want to show it to you,
This only key,
Key to my heart,
Hold back your hair,
Tieing it around your neck,
I want you to know how important you are,

I know I've said it,
But I want to make you feel this.
In the busiest of days, I call you,
A table for two, at the end of the highway.
Hold my hand and here I am.
I've left my cellphone in the car,
Tonight, you're the only thing on my mind.

Beneath the silver moon,
Lie here with me, by the sand.
I don't want you to ever cry again.
If its 3 in the morning,
Or time for my favourite talk show.
I'd ask you to ring me but you would never.

Here is the key,
The only extra key to my place.
Feel my heartbeat.
No second thoughts, no bluffing.
After you step in,
Call it home... Smile and come home.

I miss you.

Every other word you said,
After every other greet with love.
Meant much to tear up my eyes.
Now you're so far away,
And I count the steps.

Its almost twelve in the night,
And I'm walking to your place.
Barefoot, I'm carrying your heart in mine.
Walking to you, to hold you, or.
Make you whole again.

Oh I miss you.

With every corner that I turn,
I feel your heart pound louder.
I know I'm nearer to your face.
To look upto you and let you notice,
The pain in my eyes, drawing the days I've cried.
The night I've weeped, I've missed you.

After so long now that I see you,
I'm noticing ever freckle near your eyes,
Hoping that it'll just be you and me,
For the long while, I can't keep my eyes off you.
Hoping you to brush your warmth on my skin.
Everything you've done is beautiful...
I miss you, its getting hard to breathe.
Catch up with me.
