I've heard it analogized something like this: You and I have a deck of two playing cards. We know which cards they are. We shuffle them, and each take one without looking. Then we can travel as far from each other as we want, and whenever I take a peek at my card I'll know instantaneously what card you have (and vice versa). We remain connected at a distance, but no information really traveled faster than c and you and I couldn't use our knowledge of the other's card to communicate.
