I want to give you the world
but I can't afford even the smallest thing
I want to hold you close
but we are oceans apart
I want to tell the world
but the world is against me
I dream of running away*
but am stuck in this labyrinth

Can't wait
to see you
to hold you
to kiss you
to feel you
to caress you
to undress you
to make love to you
to wake up next to you

But**
mostly I can't wait to feel
the way I feel when I'm with you

I might be silly
I might expect too much
I might not understand you
I might love you more than I think

The phone is silent
The thoughts are screaming
The covers are cold
The body is boiling

Just because you never write
*"goodnight"

entangled in cables
laying in my bed
phone needs charging
pulse racing

Speechless
When I suddenly struggle to make the words come out right
When I feel I should say things that are hard
When I look into your eyes
For you

Longing*
For feeling your loving arms around me in a warm embrace
To wake up to see your beautiful smile
For us to feel close
For you

I give you everything I can
I spend every minute awake thinking
Thinking of you
You and I
The memories
The longing

I gave you my song
As imperfect as it is
Yet straight from my heart
Want to give you what others can't

The clouds over your thoughts
Are scaring me every day
I can only fight to prove my love
I can not make you believe

But I want to go back
Back to those careless nights
When the autumn wind kissed you
And I did like the wind
With a view over the city
But only eyes for you

I wish myself back to the island
Back in your arms
Back where I know you felt safe
Back where you knew my words were sincere
Back to my only happy moment in many, many months
Maybe even years
