Name: LDR (Long-Distance Relationship)
Duration: P00H02M23S
Description: In an LDR (long-distance relationship), things may often seem bitter, salty, and even sour rather than sweet, especially when you’re separated by the sea and you're overwhelmed with a longing to be close to your better half. These poignant feelings are what Singaporean singer-songwriter Amanda Ong hopes to evoke in the hearts of her listeners with her second single of the year, LDR.

lyrics

It happened, again,
But you weren’t there to see it
Oh wait, you wouldn’t get it
You would've had to be there to understand

And I’ll tell you all about my day
But sometimes it gets too late
It’s still your day when I’ve ended mine
Your good night is my rise and shine

You’re so far away from me
For two whole years separated by sea
We’re good on our own but better together,
Wouldn’t you agree?
Sooner than you think I will be nearer than far
’Til I bid this place 'au revoir'
This is L D R

Though to be frank, I like the peace I get
When I’m living on my own
All this time I have, to myself
And nobody else (nobody else)

Bitter, salty, sweet, and sour
We've seen each other through
The days are long but they’re getting shorter
How much longer till I’m with you?

You’re so far away from me
For two whole years separated by sea
We’re good on our own but better together,
Wouldn’t you agree?
Sooner than you think I will be nearer than far
’Til I bid this place 'au revoir'
This is L D R
