Depth Over Distance Lyrics

Hmm hmm hmm
Hmm hmm
Hmm hmm
Hmm hmm

Depth over distance every time, my dear
And this tree of ours may grow tall in the woods
But it's the roots that will bind us here
To the ground hmm

Depth over distance was all I asked of you
And I may be foolish to fall as I do
Still there's strength in the blindness you fear
If you're coming too, hmm
If you're coming too, hmm

Hold on, wait until that lone sun
Breaks from the arms of the Lord hmm
Hold on, though we may be too young
To know this ride we're on hmm

Depth over distance was all I asked of you
And everybody round here's acting like a stone
Still there's things I'd do, darling, I'd go blind for you
If you let grow sometimes, let it grow sometimes, let it grow
Just let it grow sometimes

'Cause so hold on, wait until that lone sun
Breaks from the arms of the Lord, hmm
Oh hold on, though we may be too young
To know this ride we're on, hmm
Oh hold on, though we may be too young
To know this ride we're on (hmm hmm)

Oh depth over distance every time, my dear
And I may be foolish to fall as I do
Still there's strength in the blindness you fear
If you're coming too da-ah
Oh, if you're coming too hmm

So hold on, wait until that lone sun
Breaks from the arms of the Lord, hmm ah
Hold on, though we may be too young
To know this ride we're on
To know this ride
To know this ride we're on (Hmm hmm hmm)

Hmm hmm hmm
Hmm hmm hmm
Hmm hmm hmm

What is the Meaning of Depth Over Distance?

Ben Howard's soulful track explores the profound connection and commitment required in relationships, emphasizing that emotional depth is more crucial than physical distance. The recurring theme of trees growing but being anchored by their roots symbolizes how deep bonds can keep a relationship grounded despite external factors. Howard suggests that embracing vulnerability and the unknown aspects of love can strengthen these bonds, even if it feels risky or foolish at times. The song beautifully captures the essence of holding on through challenges, trusting in the growth and strength that come from enduring love. #DeepConnections #EmotionalDepth #Relationships
