There's a space between whiskey and the rocks it's falling on

And there's a space between the barstool and the door

And there's a space between "will that be all?" and "I believe I'll have one more"

And there's a space between my falling heart and this dirty bar room floor

But the space between

You and me

Is filled with pain

And dyin' dreams

I tried to fill it up with whiskey

An' now I'm swimmin' hard upstream

Hopin' I'll meet you in the middle

Of that cold dark space between

And there's a space between the hard thrown door and the frame it's bound to meet

There's a space between the here and now, and when I swept you off your feet

And there's a space between the broken frame and a faded photograph

There's a space between "I do" and "I don't want you to come back"

But the space between

You and me

Is filled with pain

And dyin' dreams

Tried to fill it up with distance

But I still can't help but believe

That I'll meet you in the middle

Of that cold dark space between

There's a space between the death bed and the hand you reach to hold

When I take that final touch will it be yours?

'Cause there's a space between forever and the crossroads we stand on

We can go our separate way, and we can sing this broken song

But the space between

You and me

It ain't that wide

And it ain't that deep

Well, let's sacrifice our selfish world

And resurrect some dreams

And I'll meet you in the middle

Of that cold dark space between

I'll meet you in the middle

Of that cold dark space between
