Lyrics:

1982
Writer(s): Howard Bellamy

Away from you tonight
Seekin' the name in the lights
I'm missing the feelings I left behind
I've seen the world, all right
And I'm glad for what I've got
But it's been way too long
And I've never known
Another love like yours and mine

My little long distance love affair
Your voice is here, your body's there
I've been most everywhere
I've done all I can do
Long distance love affair
Your kiss is just a breath of air
Lord knows it can't compare
To bein' there with you

I've had too many risky flights
Too many lonely nights
My heart keeps tellin' me to take some time
When I'm feeling this uptight
Only you can make it right
Think I've talked myself into goin' home

My little long distance love affair
Your voice is here, your body's there
I've been most everywhere
I've done all I can do
Long distance love affair
Your kiss is just a breath of air
Lord knows it can't compare
To bein' there with you

I think it's clear to hear
You can tell by the tone
We're both tired of makin' love
On the telephone

My little long distance love affair
Your voice is here, your body's there
I've been most everywhere
I've done all I can do
Long distance love affair
Your kiss is just a breath of air
Lord knows it can't compare
To bein' there with you
