Agent Cooper

Written by John von Ahlen

Verse 1
Distance it’s only a word
The longer we compromise
The longer it burns
Do things to make it improve
Don’t hide all your feelings or alter your mood
Push me right over the edge
Just say what you want and let nothing be spared
Use me, I’m only a toy
Material construct for pleasure and joy
I don’t believe in conversation underwater
It can’t improve the way I’m feeling like it ought to

Chorus
The isolation tears a hole into our lonely heart
Why must we be apart for so long
Sooner or later we’ll sign the paper
That will reunite and set the whole right in the end

Verse 2
We share the passion and pain
The distance apart increases the shame
Just think, that surely one day
The distance apart will be a distant refrain
Closer than ever than before
The contact we make is like a magical score
Just think together again
“A Question Of Time” is really all that remains
I don’t believe in desperation in the Autumn
I’d rather leave the frozen pieces on the water

Repeat Chorus

Middle 8
Another day we spend apart
A perfect a way to kill the heart
And in the night is when I feel
The burning pain of what is real
