Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Every time I've needed you you've been there for me
But now I feel a boundary has been drawn
I can see from all you do that you still care for me
I know the feelin' hasn't gone
[Verse 2]
But there's a space between us, a place that I can't go
Unless you step across and meet me halfway
We've been friends for much too long
And the feelin's much too strong to let it go astray
Reach out and make the space between us go away
[Verse 3]
I know a little bit of space between two friends
Can sometimes do them good
But once in a while we need to touch the way that people should
Oh, love can tie you down, I know, 'cause you know I've been there
But I've been workin' on a way to love and still be free to care
[Verse 4]
You love your lady and I know just what you're thinkin'
Was a time I used to be just where you are
But I've since found my freedom and I've finally let it sink in
The distance really isn't very far
[Verse 5]
There's a space between us, a place that I can't go
Unless you step across and meet me halfway
We've been friends for much too long
And the feelin's much too strong to let it go astray
Reach out and make the space between us go away
[Verse 6]
I want you to reach out and make the space between us go away
I want you to reach out, make the space between us go away
I want you to reach out, I know that you can hear me
Come on and reach out, I need to feel you near me
I want you to reach out and make the space between us go away
Come on and reach out, make the space between us go away
Come on and reach out and make the space between us go away
Come on and reach out and make the space between us go away
(Need you to reach out and make the space between us go away, baby)
(Yeah) Hey, come on and reach out
