Sweeten The Distance

Lyrics: Neal Casal
Music: Neal Casal

Played by Neal Casal with Phil Lesh and the Terrapin Family Band in 2017.

Nothing's gonna stop you now
Everything you want is coming in good time
No one's gonna bring you down
It's just too long to find
I keep your note beside my bed
It gets me through the longest of long nights
I keep this dream inside my head
It's simple, but without it I would die
I'll let it sweeten the distance
Sweeten the distance, baby
Sweeten the distance
Sweeten the distance
Between me and you, it's all right

What's the sense in looking back
And still remember how I've wasted so much time
Nothing's gonna change the facts
And it's far too late to cry
Love may tear us apart
But it's never gonna leave us behind
I keep this dream inside my heart
It's simple, but without it I would die
Without it I would die
I'll let it sweeten the distance
Sweeten the distance, baby
Sweeten the distance
Sweeten the distance
Between me and you, it's a long ride
It's a long ride, it's a long ride
It's a long ride
So give it time

I hope I didn't let you down
God knows, I did my very best this time
So if you can hear me now, it's not too late to try
So when you're feeling far away and wanting much to remind
It's just a dream anyway, so simple
Without it, we would die
Without it, we would die
We'll let it, sweeten the distance
Sweeten the distance
We'll let it, sweeten the distance
Sweeten the distance
Sweeten the distance
Sweeten the distance
Between me and you, it's a long ride
