[Verse]
Late night
Screen glow
My heart's on fire
Every word you type
Fuels this desire
Miles apart but you’re under my skin
This game I’m losing
Can’t even begin
[Prechorus]
What if I say it
What if I fall
What if the silence answers my call
[Chorus]
I’m burnin’
Burnin’—long distance fever
Want you closer
Need you nearer
Terrified to say it
But I’m sinking deeper
Girl
Be my love
My long distance keeper
[Verse 2]
Heart pounds
Hands shake
Hit backspace
Every word feels like a leap of faith
Your laugh
Your smile
It’s all too much
But this damn screen
It’s a cold touch
[Chorus]
I’m burnin’
Burnin’—long distance fever
Want you closer
Need you nearer
Terrified to say it
But I’m sinking deeper
Girl
Be my love
My long distance keeper
[Bridge]
Airplane wings can’t close this gap
I’m stuck on the ground
Can’t bridge that map
Love’s a gamble
And I’m scared to play
But this fever’s climbing
It won’t go away
