Space Is My Enemy

AIrmin Van Buuren · 8 February 2026 · 4:30

Distance sounds simple when you say it out loud. In real life, it rarely is. Time, space, schedules, geography, timing in life… all of it can slowly pull two people apart even when the connection itself is still there.

Space Is My Enemy is about that tension. Missing someone in normal moments like mornings, coffee, silence in the car. It is about how time feels irrelevant when you are together, but feels heavy when you are not. This track was built to feel repetitive on purpose, like thoughts you cannot turn off, like memories that keep looping whether you want them to or not.

Musically, this sits in emotional trance territory with a steady build and a chorus that is meant to feel hypnotic and familiar. Male and female vocal interplay to create that push and pull feeling of two people trying to stay connected across distance.

If this one makes you think about someone you miss, then it is doing exactly what it was meant to do.

Turn it up. Let it sit with you for a bit.

Lyrics

It was the first day of our last year Remember It was fall? You showed up late You had those brand-new jeans They fit you tight And that first night I spent the whole time staring While you spoke your mind I couldn't say a word We walked around You showed me your world You said Oh-oh You said Oh-oh Oh-oh You said Oh Space is my enemy I miss you in the morning Oh Time It's no friend of mine When we're together I forget it Oh Space is my enemy I miss you in the morning Oh Time It's no friend of mine When we're together I forget it Oh Space is my enemy I miss you in the morning Oh Time It's no friend of mine When we're together I forget it Oh Space is my enemy I miss you in the morning Oh Time It's no friend of mine When we're together I forget it Oh Space is my enemy I miss you in the morning Oh Time It's no friend of mine When we're together I forget it Oh Space is my enemy I miss you in the morning Oh Time It's no friend of mine When we're together I forget it Oh Space is my enemy I miss you in the morning Oh Time It's no friend of mine When we're together I forget it Oh Space is my enemy I miss you in the morning Oh Time It's no friend of mine When we're together I forget it Oh Space is my enemy I miss you in the morning Oh Time It's no friend of mine When we're together I forget it Oh Space is my enemy I miss you in the morning Oh Time It's no friend of mine When we're together I forget it Oh Space is my enemy I miss you in the morning Oh Time It's no friend of mine When we're together I forget it
