| There’s a train leavin' somewhere from a station. |
| There’s a plane due almost anywhere, every hour on the hour. |
| I can walk down any street, put miles under my feet, |
| Movin' on nothin' but willpower. |
| So tell me why can’t I get to you? |
| How can I make you feel everything that I do? |
| If faith can move mountains, and love will see you through, |
| Then tell me why can’t I get to you? |
| I can’t live in the silence that’s come between us. |
| Wonderin' where you are, even when you’re holdin' me. |
| So tonight, don’t turn away: say what you need to say. |
| We owe this love the honesty. |
| Tell me why can’t I get to you? |
| How can I make you feel everything that I do? |
| If faith can move mountains, and love will see you through, |
| Then tell me why can’t I get to you? |
| Maybe there’s a river I haven’t crossed. |
| Maybe there’s a bridge you’d need to burn. |
| I’m gonna keep searchin' even though we’re lost, |
| An' keep on believin' there’s another corner that we might turn. |
| Tell me why can’t I get to you? |
| How can I make you feel everything that I do? |
| If faith can move mountains, and love will see you through, |
| Then tell me why can’t I, |
| No matter how I try: |
| Why can’t I get to you? |
