Far Away, For Far Too Long

If I told you that I loved you, how would you feel? Our friendship, I hope - is carved in solid steel. If I were there with you right now, your tears I would dry, Sweep you off your feet, and hold you while you cry. Some of the times we've spoken, you've been at death's door, Knocking on forever, nobody answers you any more. For I will save you from despair my love, I'm always here for you, I'll smash straight through obstacles, swim the ocean blue. I speak to you almost every day, but babe it's just not the same, I want to be right there with you, sharing your last name. I tend to doubt myself from time to time, saying that I'm not good enough, Not good enough to be your lover, not good enough, for you. I know that I may never match up to those, who are close to you, But I'll stand here until I die, waiting in the queue. Maybe you would eventually, come to me at last, Be with me forever, forgetting those of the past. That would complete my life, feeling your lips close on mine, True love displayed with raw passion, as our bodies intertwine. I would then give to you my very soul, in love, long overdue, The morning after, I awake, your voice says: “I love you.”
