The furthest distance in the world

Tagore

The furthest distance in the world

The furthest distance in the world

Not between life and death

Not life and death.

But when I stand in front of you

But I'm standing in front of you.

But you don't know that I love you.

But you don't know that I love you.

The furthest distance in the world

The furthest distance in the world

No, I'm standing in front of you

No, I'm standing right in front of you

But you can't see my love.

But you don't know that I love you.

But when we know that we love each other

But knowing that we love each other.

But not together.

But not together.

The furthest distance in the world

The furthest distance in the world

Not in love but not together.

It's not that you can't be together when you know you love each other.

But I can't resist this yearning

But obviously can't resist this yearning.

However, you are never in my heart.

But I must pretend that I don't care about you at all.

The furthest distance in the world

The furthest distance in the world

Just with a different heart

It's not that I can't resist this yearning, but pretend that I don't have you in my heart at all.

Dig an impassable river

But with your indifferent heart to the person who loves you.

For the people who love you

Dig an impassable ditch
