How To Measure Distance

There could be worlds between us - for all the difference it makes A distance measured in land, in sea, in people and in places An infinite journey in each bus, each train and each plane There is patience, in every second, every minute and every hour And an unspoken desire to sew the cracked continents back together – inch by inch, metre by metre, second by second. Make us whole.
