Wouldn't it be great if we spent our nights
Laying next to each other staring
Fascinated by each other's eyes

Wouldn't it be great if we spent our time
Talking about our individual lives
Wishing we'd experience it together

Wouldn't it be great if we spent our money
Travelling where ever holding
Each other's hand

Wouldn't it be great if we slept together
In the comfort and warmth
Of each other's arms

Wouldn't it be great if I get to witness
Your radiant smile on a daily basis
Only to reflect it

Wouldn't it be great if our lips met before
You or I leave for the day and after
We say our goodnights

Wouldn't it be great if we walked the streets
Side by side, fulfilled and content
With each other's company

Sadly our lives are not as great.
As if the world tries to pull us apart
Trying to poisoning our love with distance

But our lives are good
I know that even if we don't get to do these
These are things I got to experience with you

And that makes the struggle and the waiting
Worth more than anything I've ever encountered
Worth more than the fantasies

I am thankful for these moments no matter how rare
Satisfied with the memories that we both share
And I look forward to making more with you no matter how few

I know that whatever I do, whatever I choose,
Whatever struggle and whatever joy
I want to live to my life to the fullest with you.
