It would be easier for me to track a dinosaur through time; To solve the evolution mystery, or make the dictionary rhyme. To change the course of history would be easier to do Than for me to spend a single day Without a thought of you.
It would be easier for me to make the stars all disappear; To make a blind man see your face, or make a deaf man hear. To make the world stop fighting would be easier to do Than for me to spend a day without A single thought of you.
A single thought of you? I only wish that it were true, But I think of you a thousand times a day. In my heart I hope that you Are sometimes thinking of me too, And I never want, won’t ever want, these thoughts to go away.
It would be easier for me to turn a mountain into sand; To turn a desert into ocean, or an ocean into land. To make the earth stop turning would be easier to do Than for me to spend a day without A single thought of you.
A single thought of you? I only wish that it were true, But I think of you a thousand times a day. In my heart I hope that you Are always thinking of me too, And I never want, won’t ever want, these thoughts to go away.
If our lives were only easy, we would both know what to say, Know when to hold each other closer and know when to push away. To live with this emotion is no easy thing to do And I'll never spend another day Without a thought of you. And in my heart I hope that you Are always thinking of me too, And I never want, won’t ever want, these thoughts to go away.

I reposted Chris Green's "I'll Wait" because it reminded me of "Easier to Do" which I wrote a few years ago. Funny how some words just seem to fit together. And both poems describe the desperation and sometimes futility of love.
